Sample at Haandfest 2019. Pale brownish amber body with a small white head. Smooth fruity aroma with lime, citric zest and a little funky. Flavor goes in the same direction and has a fine interaction between the lime and the gin flavor. This was surprisingly nice. Refreshing and original.

750mL bottle, pours a cloudy golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of gin, lots of lime, and gentle wild yeast. Flavour is intense on the gin, with lots of intense lime. Very harsh and somewhat acidic. Too messy.

Keg at BD Castlegate. It pours hazy orangey with a small foamy white head. The aroma is perfumed, lemon - lime, peppery spice, definite gin vibes, oaky, vanilla, dried orange, a touch floral and some sweet popcorn. The taste is crisp, tart, lemon - lime, tangy, candied orange, sherbet, floral, peppery spice, oak, sweet popcorn, some harshness, definite gin and booze with a warming finish. Medium body and fine, prickly carbonation. Nice elements to it for sure, but there is a bit of popcorn and harshness. A mixed bag, but fun anyhow.
