Bottled (thanks Kim!). Ambery brown colour with a mediumsized beige head. Aroma is fruity hops, some caramel, toffee, sweet bready malts and mild sourish wooden and resiny notes. Flavour is wood, some toffee, citrus, mild acidic and lactic notes along with some alcohol and quite strong floral and fruity hopping, which still has a nice grassy bite in the finish. Grassy and somewhat raisiny sweetish notes in the aftertaste, backed up by the alcohol.

Tap at Beer Geek Bar. Sourish bretty character is moderate in aroma, but almost entirely replaced in flavour by a sophisticated woody tart element. Well attenuated, medium perceived body. Medium-light high caramelly honeyish maltiness. Very good, alcohol hidden.
