Tap at the brewpub. Strong woody, vinous qualities from the white wine barrel. Qute yeasty, and bready with slme citrus and leafy green hops. Cereals are there, but a little muted. Medium to high bitter finish, more wood, and quite acidic.

Sampled on draft at the brewpub this beer poured a hazy apricot-amber color with a large foamy white head that left great lacing. The aroma was sweet fruits, white wine, grape and vague fruity hops. The flavor was tangy white wine, grape, musty, yeasty, bubblegum and a bit of a boozy presence. Very long finish. Moderately full bodied. Interesting.

Draft - Sour grapes and some barrel notes. Cloudy yellow gold with a decent white. Funky oak notes, white grape, lacto and some oak. Awesome.

No one mentioned at Indie it was aged in wine barrels. Explains a lot. Tap at Indie. Pours a clear blonde with white head. Nose is full of fruits and cherries and vanilla. Nice flavour of Belgian yeast, with reoccurrences of that vanilla and cherry discovered in the smell, as well lovely soft malts. Hops really don’t make a big play in this beer at all. Would never classify this as a IPA. Really an excellent beer, very, very drinkable.

(Draught at the brewpub, May 17 2014) Pours a clear pale copper with a thin white ring of head, no lace. Aroma is predominately white wine with some wood, a little pit fruit, light herbal hop character. On the tongue, again very white wine heavy, slightly buttery wood, a little floral, touch of yeast spice. Slightly sour/acidic but not much, a little malt sweetness, finish is rather weak and watery with a bit of hops. Body medium, soft carb. Definitely doesn’t present as an IPA, more like a Belgian PA or blonde, lots of barrel. I didn’t think it was as complex as it could’ve been and I wish it had finished with more punch, still decent.

Very nice. Lots of peach smell here. The bretta is light but good. Pours cloudy orange with good head and lacing. Nice stuff. Finishes light bitter and sour. On draft at Volo for Zwanze Day.
