Tap at Shelton Brothers. Hazy glowing gold with a finger of foam. Lots of citrus and lemon zest in the nose. Good creamy wheat on the palate with some funk and more lemon. Tasty.

Cloudy white and foamy. Brett funkiness in the aroma, lavishly hopped at the same time. Drinks super easy, farmhouse character that is framed into a hoppy herbal frame. Brett is strong with this one. Finish is ry and relatively short. I am enjoying this a lot.

Big Bretty nose with tons of funk. Very hoppy. Very dry and a touch of oak. The body is light but a bit unbalanced. Lots of Brett. Hoppy and fairly clean. Big funky finish.

4 oz. draft, Copenhagen Brewfest, Boston. Aroma of mild Oak, Dusty basement, lemon, haystacks.

Flavor of oak, Brettanomyces, spicy yeast, and white grape. This ends almost really clean but just a hint of tartness. Gosh, why did I wait so long to try this?? Really nice.

Pours gold into a tulip. Bright white head with medium retention recedes to hug rim. Sweet hay and brett aromas. Sharp with sweet aspirin and lemon upfront turning to dry bandaid in the lasting finish.

500 ml bottle from the Portland location. December 2015 bottle. Hazy yellow color with a nice froth of white head. Aroma and flavor are full of spice, yeast, lemon pledge, citrus zest, and funk. Lively feel, dry, heavy spiced finish. Gets more funky as it warms. Very nice beer.

500 picked up at hill farmstead a few months ago. Dense 3 finger white head. Pours a lightly hazy gold. Smell is very earthy and a lot of grass, herbs and such. Starts with a light tartness then goes to this super peppery herbal beer with a lot of salad and spice and a little honey. Very yeasty. Tries to be like Arthur with no sour and a lot of spice.
