Bottle at a Ratebeer "sticky floor" tasting, Den Haag. Poured a cloudy yellow colour with a thin white head and broken lace. The aroma is dry any yeasty. The flavour is lively yeasty fruity with the yeasty flavour hitting the palate very quickly. A rather drinkable beer, but should not win too many awards.

750 c&c from Pangaea Bottle Shop. Pours hazy light orange/gold with a slight white head. Aroma of lemon, yeast, light barnyard. And some floral. Almost suggests radler? Nah! Fizzy, med body. Flavor is earthy, yeasty, citrus and probably a couple other things. Gets more earthy and barnyard with time, but is only barely sour. Kind of like a earthy Berliner Weisse? Anyway it’s difficult to describe, but it’s very tasty and certainly fits the style.

Bottled at the Hill Farmstead Festival of Farmhouse Ales. Nice deep gold. Very estery nose with peaches, a little bit of melon, banana, and clove. Really like stewed fruit. Sweet flavor, lightly aged, honey, stewed peaches. Pretty crisp and light. Nice, maybe a little old, not really that exciting.

Pour is a cloudy blonde with a large white head. Aroma is a strong grain with some pils malt and must. Flavor is reminds me of elderberry wine. Fruity with but very dry malt and with a barnyard finish. A decent and flavorful BDG and no wet paper bag like some of them have. Green bottle may lessen things as this sits on the shelf.

750 ml. Hazy gold body. Fizzy white head, slowly diminishing. Aroma of light spiciness, sweet candy, flowers. citrus, pear. Th flavor is moderately sweet, lightly bitter and lightly acidic. It finishes lightly to moderately sweet, lightly to moderately bitter and lightly acidic. Taste of fruit, citrus, candy sugar, grapes and grass. Medium body, watery texture and lively carbonation. I thought this was refreshing, but the body was a bit thin.
