Taster. Appearance: slightly hazy golden with a white head. Aroma: Brett and oak. Taste: along the same lines, but it's very sour and with acetone notes. Overall: not very good, unfortunately.

Tasting at Matt's
Cloudy golden colour. Very nice aroma, pungent fruit, peach, passion fruit, and some funk. Smooth mouthfeel, juicy, strong acidity, but also nice and juicy character, and some funk.
Excellent.

650mL bottle, pours a murky, cloudy orange with a small off-white head. Aroma brings out lots of dry hops, with lots of barrels, and wild yeast. Flavour is along the same lines, with lots of tart citrus, some wild notes, and a touch of funk. Very citric and lacking depth. Not very convincing.

Bottle. Light amber. Lots of berry notes, vinous, maybe some wood in there. Getting a bit of phenols underneath of there, but a lot of hops as well. Tart, some fruity hop notes, but this is harsh, and there's some funk. Kind of wonky.
