(375ml bottle from the brewery webshop c/o Herbalist, thanks!) Pours lightly hazed dark amber with a loose off-white head and lace. Notes of fairly high acidity citrus and pit fruit, orange/lemon/apricot bite, maybe yellow plum?, vinous woodsiness reminiscient of a very sour wine, crisp slightly toasty cereals without much obvious caramel sweetness but a little spicy grain structure, clear oaky bite especially in the finish, astringent and tannic, with a long interesting acidic aftertaste. Light to medium slightly oily body with average carbonation. Definitely a different beer, I'm interested by some of these HHoE lagers or traditional farmhouses without adjuncts even if I mostly prefer their other offerings. Quite enjoyable as an aperitif though the acidity would have me struggle not to share a bottle.

Cloudy copper with a decent white head. Light bready funk. Soured malts and light cheese. Sour and a bit bracing.
