Bottle. Gold, a white head does not survive the pour. 3- Aroma has lemon and laundry funk over vanilla and almond biscotti, apricots and their stones, grapes, grass, lime. Plenty of body, lowish carbonation. Sweet hay and dough, grapes and biscuity vanilla, sourish underripe (peach) and astringent (pineapple) fruit, oak and a finishing ping of citrus. A lot going on, so much that maybe it lacks the elegance of some of their beers. Just a little drier would have sung for me. Still, a very good beer.
