Our Brett-fermented re-imagining of the classic West-Coast IPA. Brewed exclusively with our house Brettanomyces strain, aged in foeders for 3 months and dry hopped to the brink and back. Loaded with pithy citrus zest, resinous pine and a lasting dry finish.

(Bottle) Hazy amber colour with frothy, off-white head. Fruity, funky nose with notes of mango, apricots, orange, herbs, butterscotch and spicy yeast. Fruity, funky, hoppy taste with mango, apricots, orange peel, herbs, hay, butterscotch and a generous citric/spicy bitterness in the finish. More than medium body, with a slight sweetness. The funky yeast remains quite balanced, making it both tasty and quite interesting. Nice one.

330ml bottle purchased at Vinmonopolet Langnes. Dissipating white head, hazy orange-gold body, dotted spots. Inviting yeasty fruitiness with a scent of cheese. Citrus and brett on the taste character, supported by cheese and oak. Prominent bitter fruity finish, dry. Well bodied. A pleasant surprise. (Tromsø 25.10.2020).

Bottle picked up at BD Flagship. It pours lightly hazy golden with an orangey hue and a fluffy white head. The aroma is bright, sweet and juicy, ripe stone fruits, persimmon, apricot, grapefruit, pine, resin, oak, gummy bears and fizzy cola bottles. The taste is firmly dry, some bitterness, pine, resin, pink grapefruit, pomelo, lemon sherbets, pink lemonade, funky, hay, oak, light tannin, fizzy cola bottles, green aspect, touch of spice and nip of alcohol. Finish is dry oak and funk. Medium body and moderate, fluffy carbonation. Fun stuff, works well in my opinion as a fan of jackhammer and funk.

Huge thanks to Erzengel for sharing! Bottle looks good. Beer in the glass zippy, small head. Sourish fruity aroma. Starts intense malty-sourish, woody-tart notes as well. Notes of lemon, some apricot. Mild bitter background. Nice.

Big thank you to Erzengel for this 0,33 l bottle. Hazy pale golden with a one finger white foamy head in the glass. Intensive tart tropical fruity smell. Taste starts also tart dry tropical fruity. Dusty pale grain with some bitterness. Low carbonated. Increasing citrus. Honey and overripe fruits the end. May be some brett. Funky! But also drinkable. Interesting!
