Tasting at SF, Vancouver
Cloudy golden color. Nice Brett character, fruity, spicy, drier and a bit astringent in the final.
Very good.

Bottle - Lots of funk with a touch of cheese. Cloudy gold with a decent white head. Funk and stone fruit and a funky finish. Light tea notes.

750mL bottle, sent from wilco (thanks a lot, Mike), pours a cloudy golden orange with a small white head. Aroma brings out orange fruits, Belgian yeast, and candied sugar. Flavour is similar, with Belgian yeast, orange fruits, earthy notes, and candied sugar. Murky and confused - not all that coordinated. It's pleasant enough, but needs some refining.

Hazy, tan, and without much head. There's some light brett, nice body, some berries, and complex fruit and tart notes. Decent - not sure I pick up much tripel, but I appreciate the balance between the base beer of the sweetness, and the funky complexity.

A lot of wine in his like a soup kitchen line up. Amber pour with a decent lacin. A slight bretta vibe, but not much here other than wine must. Tap at Bar Hop.
