500 ml bottle from the Portland location. April 2016 date listed on the bottle. Not listed as a collaboration anymore in the description, but otherwise I think it's still the same beer. Murky white-gold pour with a wispy white head and some sticky lacing. Funky yeast aroma, some herbal and mineral notes, spice, lemon, and lemon zest. Light sweet, good funk, spice. A bit tart. Fairly heavy carbonation. Mid-dry, mineral finish. Refreshing and enjoyable.

Bottle shared at the Tropical Croydonia tasting. 01/07/2015. Many thanks to Leighton. Light bright yellow hazed coloured pour with lasting thin white head. Aroma is spicy, horsey, brett c, pineapple, wheaty. Flavour is composed of spritzy pineapple, funk, wheaty, chalky, carbonic acid bite, bitter lemon. Palate is very highly carbonated, spritzy, wheaty/ Session funk. Good shit.

Undated bottle (so older than December 2014, because I know they began dating them at least as recently as then) from Lukaduke, drunk 8/16/15.
Lovely appearance, as always from Oxbow, showing a clear, bubbly, bright golden body and strong white head atop.
Soft, elegant brett notes blend effortlessly with light citrus and honey notes. Gentle cream-like sweetness and of course no alcohol nor flaw.
Effervescent, refreshing texture releases dry wheat notes, bits of honeycream and soft, floral hop notes. Gentle acidity piques the palate’s interest on the end, and leaves a finish replete with light citrus and a touch of fruitiness, as well as clean yeast-like minerals and water. Excellent, as always and not quite as enticingly flavorful as fresh Loretta, but perhaps more graceful. Delicious in its own right. If there is a heaven, it consists of all-you-can-drink Oxbow grisettes 24/7
