Batch 1, Nov 2013 - Pours light reddish orange with a smooth white head. Aroma of bretta, hibiscus, spices, hints of lime, wood and oak. Taste is tartish with hints of bretta, spices, hibiscus, lime and oak. Finish is spicy and slightly oaky with hints of bretta, lime and floral notes. A bit strange.

Bouteille 75 cl de et partagée avec Steve and the crew. De couleur orangée, col fin de couleur rosâtre foncé, pas de col. Arôme est léger en grains, bouquet moyen alliant le profil prononcé de la fleur d’hibiscus et le côté acidulé du citronné. L’un et l’autre se complète sans que l’un ne prenne trop le dessus. Palais est en ligne avec l’énoncé. On retrouve un bon profil citronné et une petite note de douceur typique de l’hibiscus. Ce dernier ne tombe cependant pas dans le profil trop sucré. L’effervescence joue un peu le rôle contraire en étant un peu trop discrète. On y note un profil de grains au malt pâle sans pour cela bien cerner le brett et le côté boisé du chêne. Cependant on note une différence dans le profil Hillfarm qui est plus centré sur un aspect funk.
