Bottle thanks to Will. Pours a cloudy orange with small frothy white head. The aroma is strong rubber, bandaid, funk, oak. Medium mouthfeel with strong funk, veggie, oak and light fruit. Good.

750 mL bottle. Aroma is very fruity with quite a bit of overripe stone fruit, peaches, pears, red apple and citrus. Moderate toasted bread with hints of toffee and caramel. Hints of light phenolics and citrus. Pours a murky, light brown with some copper hues and a thick, somewhat small, tan head that shows average retention as it recedes to the edges and lingers. Lacing is moderate with small legs. Flavor is slightly tart with quite a bit of fruit character. Lots of cherry, cassis, fig, prune and plum with some light red apple. Light acidity adds hints of lemon and orange. Medium light bitterness. Medium light malt notes of toasted bread with hints of toffee and caramel. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a pretty nice beer, but I have a hard time characterizing this as a Biere de Garde. It is missing the malt character that I would expect, but the fruit notes and the light acidity are great. This reminds me more of a fall/winter saison, but perhaps that is nitpicking

Bottle. shared @SARA. Pours cloudy chestnut, small tan head, decent lacing. Aroma is tart cherry, oaky, a bit of barnyard funk. Really opens up as it warms. Flavor is light sweet, light tart, some funkiness but not strong, lots of oak tannins, but not much astringence. Fairly light body, drying finish. Let this one breathe a bit if you want to enjoy it.
