Another bottle from hopdog, thanks Steve. has a light gush from the bottle and then a big head, beautiful head with a sticky lacing. Aroma is, well, divine. First there is light cherry brett, than strawberry bubblegum (not from esters), and some unobtrusive grainy barrel. Brett is present with some sweet Belgian maltiness. Flavor thins out a bit more, its brett-centric, with sweet pit. This evaporates nicely off my palate and a nice aftertaste of musky and mineral flavors. A bit of a bitter grainy kick at the end. Beautiful aroma and a great mouthfeel.

bottle thanks Paul! Pours brown with a medium off white head. Aroma is very fruity, all over the spectrum. Flavor is strawberry, apricot, apples and a light spicy funk.

750 ml waxed dipped bottle, shared by beastiefan2k. October 2009 on label. Pour is hazed orange brown copper with a two inch light tan head that falls pretty quick. Aroma is big vegetable and yeast spice, followed by oak and light earthy sour. Taste is clove, light sour malt, citrus, buttery oak and wood. The Brett comes out in the finish, leathery earthiness. Taste lingers quite a bit with the barrel woodiness. Palate is medium bodied, slick mouthfeel, flavors linger and last. Nice one, thanks Eugene.
