0,5l bottle at home. yellow lightly hazy color, small white head. smells funk, wood, oak, earthy, bit vinous, lightly fruity. very nice smell. full body, soft carbonation. tastes vinous, wood, oak, peppery. finishes dry and lightly sour with notes of wood, vinous notes and pepper. very good one, rather wood and barrel forward. good enough amount of funk to keep it interesting.

Like an old friend indeed. I love me a wine barrel-aged saison and this is a banger. Just enough funk and tannins. So much expression in these mixed cultures.

1/VII/22 - 50cl bottle @ DOK Brewing Fest (Gent), BB: n/a (2022-826) Thanks to all for sharing the beer!
Clear blond yellow beer, small creamy white head, a little stable, a bit adhesive, leaving some lacing in the glass, nice. Aroma: pretty fruity, funky, a little yeasty, peaches and apricots. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: a bit funky, floral, bitter, acidic, dry, tannins, yeasty, some banana. Aftertaste: sourish, funky, bitter, tannins, dry finish.
