750mL bottle drunk 12/31/22. Clear bronze-brass. Solid, small, white head showing moderate-to-strong retention. Strong Brett-lacto (mostly lacto) with light acetic and soft oak. Vanilla, fruit, juicy acids and light honey and biscuit-like maltiness. Deep mineral and cherry-like brett with deep acetic acid that isnt super punchy but still leaves a vinegar-like character lightly. Soft, malty, heavily tannic and chewy with good honey-like maltiness. Vanilla-cherry, lots of lactic acid and moderate oak dryness. Drying out heavily. Definitely some balance issues here, as well as heavy acidity that goes a bit overboard. The mouthfeel is soft and the malt succulent, but it's just so acidic and tannic. Getting worse as it warms. Yeah this is just not enjoyable after it has warmed and breathed fully. Acetic and too tannic.

Sergey's hunt, tasting at Ryan's, bottle
Hazy blond colour. Farty aroma, light fruit. Not too dry, highly carbonated, there is something weird, a bit rubbery, probably some wine barrel, indeed some light acidity too; mild astringency in the finish.
But overall it's quite good.

750mL bottle, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma is very rustic and wild, with lots of rustic wild yeast, gentle white wine, oak, and with a bit of Citra hops. Flavour is very complex, with lots of wild bugs expressing themselves in harmony, a deep rustic character, white wine, and oak. The yeast profile is really wonderful and the oak/wine couldn't really be better. Complex and wonderfully blended. Fantastic stuff.
