Sample at Solothurner Biertage, may 2019. Unclear orange body with a small white head. Aroma is funky, fruity, wood and some acid. Flavor is tart, quite smooth, sour fruity, funky, wood and farmhouse. Balanced body and same aftertaste. Smooth, refreshing and tart.

Tap at Erzbierschof Zürich. Very fine smooth foam, some lacing. This is a sour on the light side of the spectrum, yet still with a very good taste.

On tap at Solothurner Biertage. Hazy orange color with small head and crazy lacing. Nice funk, brett bruxellensis nearly, lactic acid. Taste is easier than expected, nice barrel, a bit sweet, nice funk. Definitely infected, but I don?t know how much of this was on purpose. Surprisingly good and surprisingly bad at the same time... EDIT: On tap at Microbrewer Armageddon Zurich. Much better towards the finish. Nice job!
