Poured form 750mL bottle (2018-2019 vintage; bb 08/01/2029). Hazed orange gold with minimal white head. Gentle pinot gris grape, soft tart funk underlay. The age adds nicely to this. Enjoyable.

Bottle. Short lasting head. Peppery and the grapes come out nicely. Some bitter tannins. Quite nice!

Fairly hazy golden orange with a short lived white head. Aroma is vinous, oak, tart green grapes, green apple and light funk. Flavour is moderate to heavy sour. Medium bodied with some sour burn in the finish and light carbonation. Doesn’t seem as refined and balanced as the first batch, maybe could do with some more time on it.

Bottle, 750 ml. Hazy orange, small white head. Funk, citric, barnyard, some manure, horse blanket. Great.
Hapu, viinamarjane, tsitrus, tikker, mõrudust on ka natuke, tamme, päris happeline. Hea.
Don't normally love grapey wild ales but grapey lambic is another level and this one especially was perfect amount of dry grape funk.
