From backlog. Vinous, oaky and funky yeasty with loads of carbonation and toffee notes. Interesting.

At a tasting, thanks, small stable bubbly head, hazy palish orange color with lots of carbonation, aroma of vanila and wood, flavor of vanila, that is just a bit too strong, with dairy hints and some fruitiness coming through, noticable sourness. Nice and interesting.

Bottle from March Brewdog Bottlebox [250318]
A3, N6, T6, P3, O12 3.0
Amber, light haze, frothy white head
Aroma of soft sweet pale malts, light fruits, light white wine, slight alcohol
Taste of light pale malts, some spicy notes, slight fruit, getting soft alcohol tang like you get with a white wine
Palate - Medium carb, medium light body, light bitter, fairly smooth. Finish has a dry linger, getting slight tannic notes
Overall - Ok...didn't really do a lot for me and seemed stronger than 4.9%

Tight white fluffy head stayed all the way on a highly effervescent, murky, copper coloured body. Minimal aroma of grain. Medium bodied, smooth on the palate with a tingle on the back & a cloying finish. Vinous tastes with caramel, malt, wine, grape, citrus & spices. Very sophisticated!

Keg at Brewdog North. Pours orange with a decent white head. Nice wine aroma, lots of grape and chalk. Taste is pretty decent with a nice grape, chalk and oak thing happening. Quite liked it

Keg at Brewdog Shepherd's Bush, London. A hazy golden/amber coloured pour with a medium white head on top. Sweet, fruity, whiskey, caramel on the nose. Tastes similar, slightly sweet, fruity, whiskey, caramel. Very interesting and so easy to drink, plenty going on in this one for such a low ABV.
