Re-rate: Batch 1 from 2014 - poured from cork and caged 750mL bottle. Gusher and the cork popped way up in the air as soon as the cage was untwisted just a few times. Cloudy dull gold with huge white head. Nose is oxidized with some yogurt. Taste is still decent at least - funky, just mild oxidation. Okay. Aug 04, 2021 (7/3/8/4/17=3.9): Poured from the tap. Cloudy blonde with small white head. Juicy citrus with lots of apricot and hint of passionfruit. Quite nice. Nov 17, 2016 (7/3/8/3/16=3.7): Poured from the tap. Hazy golden with white head. Apricot and nectarine with very mild peach and mango. Light sour lactose quality. Mild oily texture.
