Early test batch straight from the brewer. Thanks Mett B. / Belgain Pale Ale with Brettanomyces aged in Rioja barrels. Lovely.

Bottle at home in Hackney - sourced via RAD Beer. Pours mostly clear amber with a creamy, off-white head. Has some nice tangy berry character, old wood, red wine, mellow funk. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Finishes with nips of raspberry, more old and funky wood. Interesting.

330ml bottle. Pours an unclear golden amber, thin dissipating white head. Aroma is light rioja and sherry with gentle brett. Taste has nice gentle sherry, sot rioja influence, would've welcomed a more prominent brett presence and brighter carbonation but it's still very good overall.
