On tap at Luppolo, pours a hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out pungent gin barrel notes, with subdued brett. Flavour is intense, with loads of abrasive gin barrels (really don't like this gin from Odd Society), with a bit of brett. I know they're local, but I wish they wouldn't use Odd Society gin barrels - just not a fan. This is okay.

Draft - Hrrbal and some spicy notes. Dark cloudy gold with a decent white head. Nice balanced spice and a pleasant tartness. Balanced and well done.

Draught at the brewery
Cloudy darker blond color. Light mint aroma. Fizzy base, it gets a good character from the yeast, light funk, then mild lemon touch, that blends well with the gin character. They used much less barrel than in other gin barrel beers, this this one is better. Balanced.
Very nice.

Taste at the brewery. Pours a hazy blonde with a white head. Aroma is very pleasant with fruity and gin notes. Taste is similar with a barrel and some spices notes. Whoa, this one is complex and very good!
