On tap at Île Sauvage. Pours clear blonde with a white head. Lacto on the nose. Flavour is pretty sour, notes of lacto, gentle citrus, a light touch of vinegar. A very uninteresting sour.

The aroma is big bretty funk and sour grain, has a nice yellow body with modest foam on top. Flavour is mellow citrus sourness. Mouthfeel is a little thin. It's not bad but needs more fullness.

Tasting at Matt's, crowler
Hazy dull blond colour. Lemony aroma, lightly floral. Dry and weak mouthfeel, sharply acidic, lemony, a bit astringent in the finish, but not much complexity.

32oz crowler (thx, Simon N.!) at Matt's. Pours a hazy pale golden with a white head. Aroma is strong with hops and lemony notes. Taste is quite acidic and dry. It's quite harsh. Meh.

Slight haze, and without much head. Light colour. On the nose, this has a lot of lemongrass and stone fruit on the nose, quite perfumey, actually. On the palate, it's tart, with a strong lemon character and again a touch of that stone fruit. Sharp tartness. Fairly simple, ok maybe a touch of wood but not sure.

Crowler, pours a hazy pale golden with a small white head. Aroma has a lot of soap, lemon cleaner, and earthy feet-like notes. Flavour is pure lemon cleaner, with soap, musty armpits, and lemon. Nasty dry hopping and lemon cleaner on the finish. Poor.
