750ml @ Phill's. Appearance: copper with a beige head. Aroma: brett, balsamic, some sour cherries, some bready notes. Taste: along the same lines, a bit watery, weird fruity bitterness. Overall: meh.

Poured from 750mL bottle. Hazy reddish brown with small beige head. Earthy, dry brett, feint subtle acetone, pretty bad.

750mL bottle, pours a deep dark rusted reddish brown with a small beige head. Aroma brings out balsamic notes, earthiness, and some garbage/sewage. Flavour is not very pleasant, with earthy notes, balsamic, some sewage-y notes, and some brett. Bretty, weirdly funky -- can't shake those garabge-y notes -- and lightly tart. Lol is all I can say about this.

Bottle: Poured a clear reddish color ale with a large off-white foamy head with OK retention and some lacing. Aroma of Brett notes with some oak and tart notes is OK. Taste is a mix of weird Brett notes with some oak and tart cherry notes which more or less works well together. Some vinous notes are also perceptible. Body is about average with good carbonation. This taste like a quickly put together Flanders Red and end up lacking some depth.

Waxed swing-top with a Brett beer = a bad idea. With most wild yeast beers, you get the overflow from crazy carbonation, so having the wax as an obstacle is not cool. Pours a cloudy brown colour, murky, with a frothy beige head, fizzing away rather quickly with minimal lacing. Earthy wild yeast aromas that are not overpowering with red apple juice notes, caramel and hints of nuts. The flavours show no sourness from the Brett, but still the earthiness with nuttiness, fruitiness and caramel is lightly under with hints of wax in the finish. Seems to come from the hops that do not blend well with this beer. Not one I would have again.
