On tap at the Alibi Room, pours a cloudy dark orange with a small white head. Aroma reveals the brett upfront, followed by some vinous notes and sweet caramely biscuity malt. Flavour is intense, with lots of booze that hits you upfront, along with tannins, caramel, bready malt and a touch of brett. Boozy but not in too detracting a way. Solid stuff.

Draught at Alibi Room, Vancouver
Cloudy amber color. It has a nice aroma, mildly vinous. The mouthfeel is lean and much less sweet than expected, luckily it doesn't have the cloying sweetness of Wheat Wines; there are soft tannins, some Brett character, gentle alcohol touch, and mild vinous shade.
A good beer, definitively not what was expected.

@Alibi. Light amber colour. Quite cloudy. Thin head. On the nose, brett up front, some peachy notes, malt sweetness playing around in there somewhere. Strong - the alcohol is quite powerful on the palate. The body is pretty light for the style. Light figg

Tap at Alibi. Deep, cloudy orange, lovely, with lace. Fresh peaches in the nose, lovely , apricots. Flavor is tart orange, slightly unripe nectarine, wheat biscuit. Tart, light, dry but fruity, boozy. Austere and sophisticated, with a peppery, bitter finish. Aging would make it even better I think.
