Bouteille 33cl @ Hamnmästaren, Malmö. BB 2015-03-17 batch# 7. Dorée-orangée, col blanc fin. Arôme de brett léger et subtile, levure, fruitée avec ici un bouquet houblonné fruité et herbacé restant assez neutre sur une pointe citronnée. Palais garde ce profil typique belge de saison, palais un peu sec avec ce brett qui encore une fois donne une certaine complexité en fin de bouche. Malt léger sur note caramel, fin de bouche rappelant presque un côté champenois et un léger abricot.

Cloudy light amber color with medium sized creamy head. Messy aroma: spices, light funkiness, vegetables, yeast cake, light fruits (6 is a gift). Smooth mouthfeel; spicy flavor, but also too much yeast; the bitterness is too high (but this is an effect of the fermentation); all along there is a sharp metallic feeling.
Side note: after eating spicy food, some banana note appears, and the yeast defects are better masked.
A total mess overall. Poor, too close to clumsy homebrews; it should not be on the market of craft beers. QA before sales!

Small white head. Hazy opaque pale yellow body with carbonation. Spicy floral aroma with funky notes. Dry-sweetish spicy funky fruity taste with orangey notes. Mild, mealy mouthfeel. Mid-bodied. Dry-sweet mealy floral orange rind aftertaste. Incredibly easy-drinking and delicate. (0.33l bottle shared by KnutAl. Batch #2.)

bottle bought through Systembolaget. pours hazy dark brownish golden with a small fizzy head that leaves a small trace on the glass while dissipating. Smell is malty, fruity, funky and slightly phenolic with bread, cereal, orange zest, pineapple, brett, moist wood and dry soil. Taste is slightly bitter, funky and phenolic with cereal, bread, dry soil, orange zest, overripe tropical fruits, barnyard, hay bandaids, crackers, brett and dried apricots. Mouthfeel is crisp, dry, tiny stale and light bodied. Finish is tiny bitter and funky with old bread, dried tropical fruits, orange zest, brett and crackers. Nice and funky but a bit too phenolic.

Bottled:
Pours muddy pale brown with a large head. Somewhat acidic, funky aroma; smells almost like Orval. Taste is dry, crisp and somewhat grassy. Long, dry bitterness. This brew really grows on you I think it would taste wonderful on a warm summer day.

Bottle at home in London - big thanks to Fredrik for hooking it up in the trade! Pours cloudy, deep gold with a large, frothy white foam head. Lots of tangy funk in the nose, sweaty armpit, zippy lemon. Light to medium sweet flavor, lots of bretty funk, some lemon, dank grapefruit, melon, background doughy bread. Medium bodied with average to lively carbonation. Moderate sweetness coupled with sturdy funk, some dry yeast, a bit of sugary dough, tangy lemon, mellow grassy bitterness. Great stuff overall, very dynamic. Quite refreshing, cleansing. And punches above its weight class.
