7.6/10 Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 7.5
Poured from a 750 ml bottle. Aroma is Brett forward with lots of fruity notes. Some light cherry notes with some bright stone fruit, lemon lime, grapes and tropical fruit. Light grain notes and light alcohol notes. Pours a slightly hazy, golden color with a medium sized, thick, pillowy, white head that recedes to a small film that lingers. Light lacing and faint legs. Flavor is slightly sweet upfront with light grain notes and a touch of acidity. Medium bitterness and light alcohol notes. Fairly fruity with lemon lime, cherry and grapes. A bit of stone fruit and a touch of a plastic note. Light peppery phenolic notes. Mouthfeel is medium light bodied with medium high carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a nice Brett saison, especially in the aroma. Super fruity fermentation characteristics, especially in the aroma. The flavor had a bit of an off Brett note, but not overly so.
