Reeking of filmjölk which is a pity. Taste is a solid light refreshing lightly fruited saison. Enjoyable except for the smell.

Bottle courtesy of Hackobock. 2015 vintage. Pours murky deep yellow with a small frothy offwhite head that leaves some sticky lacing on the glass. Smell is fruity, lactic and slightly funky with crackers, filmjölk, lemon juice, green plums, hay, dry soil, barnyard and lemon zest. Taste is sour, slightly fruity and funky. Mouthfeel is soft, dry, tart, tiny mouth-puckering and light to medium bodied. Finish is sour with crackers, lactic acid and plum jam. Rather offensive lactic acid filmjölk nose but the taste is nice and overall it’s a solid sour and fruited saison.

Bottle @ Stephen’s house. Thanks Dave! Pours a murky orange appearance with no head. Aroma has some butter with dark grape, apple, and plum. Twangy, slightly tart plum flavor with slick mouth feel. I got a shit load of butter but others at the tasting didn’t really get much butter. Hmmm.
