Well, at this point it looks like mud. No head, murky, greyish. There's a fair bit of nectarine, This is really tart, and bracing, with a light nectarine, and a bit of yeastiness.

750mL bottle, pours an opaque cloudy peach colour with a quickly-dissipating head. Aroma is fairly yeasty and oxidized, with tart, pithy nectarine, and a touch of tartness. Flavour is loaded with overriped stone fruits, with tons of tart nectarine juice, intense acidity, and a little oak. Very acidic, fruity, pithy, and overripe. After all this time, this holds up decently; but it's not a brilliant beer.

Poured from a 750 ml bottle. Aroma is moderately fruity with a fairly strong nectarine note. Some lighter lemon and pineapple. Light wheat with hints of oak. Some light fruit skin notes and tannins. Pours a hazy, golden color with a medium sized, thin white head that recedes immediately and disappears. No lacing or legs. Flavor has a moderate acidity with quite a bit of nectarine character as well as some light wheat notes. A light sweetness from the malt and the fruit. Light tannins and oak notes. Very fruity with lighter citrus and pineapple notes. Moythfeel is medium light bodied with medium high carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a nice, fruity berliner with great nectarine notes. I like that the acidity is not too strong and some light wheat notes shine through.

Bottle thanks to Bruce. It pours cloudy orange with a small white head. The nose is weirdly enough of spaghetti hoops, fresh nectarines, sour peach/apricot, earth and tangy lactic notes. The taste is crisp, tart, good mouth-pucker, lots of sour nectarine, nectarine skin, lactic acid, sherbet, some lemon cheesecake and wood with a dry, acidic finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Aroma is a bit weird, but not unpleasant. Plenty of nectarine. Perhaps a bit acidic, but still very nice.

Bottle sample @ Troy’s Bday tasting @ Stein & Vine. Thanks Chad. Trouble orangée assez trouble, pas de col. Arôme au bouquet fruité donnant de suite ce bouquet de nectarine alliant un bouquet de pêche ponctué par un agréable fleuri en rétro. Palais est assez ’puckering’, lactique gardant une base typique de sour mash pour une effervescence très haute, fin biscuité malté sur la fin.

Draft - Lots of natural nectarine and not too sweet. Cloudy gold with almost no head. Lots of nectarine and very juice like with little tartness.
