Poured from the tap. Quite hazy blonde with minimal white head. Quince, apple, hint of wood, okay.

Bottle #360/360, last one of the bunch, carefully laid down in my cellar by Nepalese monks for about, oh, 3 months. Chilled, it pours a tepid pale straw with little foam and modest carbonation. Good sweet apple must on the nose, soft hay and barn funk notes. Flavour is tart fruitiness, musty apple and burlap, quince pounding through with soft wood notes. Carbonation keeps it crisp. Elevated and well defined sour, enjoyable.

Pale, hazy, no head. The aroma is bretty, with some tree fruit (I guess quince), and some sort of acetic/butyric thing going on underneath of all that. On the palate, I like the way the quince comes through, but the base beer is pretty harsh in terms of acetic, and that sharpness undermines the balance. Wood lends a little touch of something, but not really anything compelling to me. It's okay, but the lack of that sugar roundness has become an issue at Luppolo lately.

500mL bottle, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out melon, wild yeast, crisp apples, and woody barrels. Flavour is full of wild yeast, apples, woody barrels, and melon. Very tart and ascorbic, but decently constructed. Not bad but lacks cohesion.
