Craft Clerkenwell. Bottleshare. Hazy amber - gold beer, very thin pale cream colour head. Palate is smooth but has decent fine carbonation. Semi dry. A prominent, if light, savoury note. Mild generic fruits and floralness. More savouryness. Light winey tang. Semi dry finish. Decent if a little over bretty.

Bottle at Craft Clerkenwell, thanks to Kenny. It pours cloudy dirty gold with a medium white head. The nose is soft, floral, bitter- sweet, white grape, vanilla, wood, grape must, funk, marzipan and fruit pie. The taste is crisp, biter, toasty, funky, white grape, wood, spice, earth, stewed orange, must and mouldy peach with a dry, musty finish. Medium body and moderate, foamy carbonation. Pretty nice overall, if not very well balanced.

Bottle shared at the Craft Beer Co. Clerkenwell pre-Christmas tasting - London. Cheers to everyone’s favourite wild-man, Kenny. The beer pours hazy orange-gold with a creamy, white head. The nose has a nice funk about it, with secondary notes of peach, citrus, orange, tangerine and poop, too. Light sweet flavor with moderate funk, wood, hay, more tangerine, orange, all of it laced with a twang of brett character. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Drying on the finish, with more wood, poopy brett, tangerine. Good stuff.

Slightly cloudy light orange amber pour with a two finger froth white head. Nose is green apples and brett funk with a good helping of white wine and wood and hints of citrus, tofee, hay, honey, and yeast. Flavour is lightly sweet under a medium dry tartness which is more subtle than the big nose implies. Mouth is slightly thin but with a slightly prickly carbonation and a very dry finish. A nice blend.

750 ml bottle. Thanks to Ajax! Slightly yeasty, Brett aroma with a big white wine barrel influence.

The flavor has a tannic white wine note right up front with a nice yeasty chewy body. The Brett has a very mild funk note that slightly lingers. The texture is light and wonderfully dry. Nice drink.

I bought this bottle and #2 in Quebec City (I think) about a month ago.

A - Slightly cloudy, golden yellow. Could be incredibly beautiful after sitting for a few months.

S - Aroma is very peppery. Honey, clove and even some ginger. Oak presence is slow and a little sour grape.

T - Interesting taste. Lots of belgian yeast, oaky, strange, sort of tannic, high in bitterness. wheat, grain, bread dough. strange.

M - Explosive mouthfeel. chalky finish

O - This was very interesting. Not sure if I’d revisit...maybe with more age?

Bottle courtesy of tkrjukoff. Pours hazy orangish yellow with a frothy and fizzy offwhite head that leaves some sparse trace on the glass. Smell is fruity and funky with crackers, grapefruit juice, lemon juice, white grapes, kumquats, moist wood, hay, dry soil, minerals, barnyard and lemon zest. Taste is very tiny sour, slightly bitter, tiny fruity, herbal and funky with crackers, grapefruit, white grapes, star fruit, kumquats, hay, dry soil, minerals, dry wood, lemon balm, dill, barnyard and lemon zest. Mouthfeel is crisp, dry, very tiny tart and light bodied. Finish is very tiny sour and bitter with crackers, grapefruit, grapes, star fruit, hay, dry soil, dry wood, barnyard, lemon balm and lemon zest. Very nice and refreshing. Possibly a bit too bitter which hides the subtle pleasant funk and ruins the sparkling tropical funky complexity.
