Clear orange blond beer, small creamy off-white head, unstable, dissipates quickly. Aroma: lots of brett, yellow stone fruit, somewhat sweet impression, some vanilla. MF: lively carbon, medium body. Taste: very pleasant, very fruity, peaches, apricot, gentle acidity, quite some bitterness, brett notes. Aftertaste: fruity, gentle bitterness, stonefruit, a hint of tropical fruits, a bit herbal, very pleasant, good stuff!

Tap at Volo. Slight hazy orange pour, with a small white head. Funky, bretty nose with some nice mango and tropical fruit aromas. Malts are subtle but still quite up front, bready and biscuity. From the aroma I’m expecting sweet, hoppy notes, but it’s quite dry, with a medium li Gering bitterness. Finish is just slightly grassy with some light fruit, and funk. Ends very abruptly and very dry.

Ein Bier, das lange im Kühlschrank herumstand, da ich mich nicht ganz drübertraute und die 0,75 l-Flasche alleine etwas heftig gewesen wäre. An einem gemütlichen Abend wurde die Flasche jetzt mit einem Kumpel verkostet. Allerdings war uns das BIer einfach zu ahstrus. Es hatte primär eine Sauerbiergerüst, das aber mit brutal-bitterem Hopfennoten gespickt war. Dazu kam eine pickige Malzigkeit drinnen, die einfach nicht passte. Nach einem kräftigen Verkostungsschluck wurde das Bier entsorgt.
