Bottle, lot 004. Big gusher. Color: Hazy, rather pale yellow golden, white head. Aroma: Leather, tart, white grapes, grapeskin, oak. Taste: Leather, hints of white grapes, grapeskin and some oak. Light to moderate sour and sweet, somewhat more bitterness. Strong leathery and some bittery grape seed finish. Dry-ish and somewhat astringent mouthfeel. Lively carbonation, just under medium body. I don't think this beer was originally mentioned like this and I don't think it tasted like this about a year ago, following the earlier reviews. The fruity part is pushed away by the funky leather. Mwah.

At Wortspiele #5. Pours cloudy yellow. Aroma is vinous, grapes, salty crisps, Brett, stables. Body is medium and pinchingly sour, grapes, but a bit one dimensional, lively carbonation. Straight and clean though. Good.
