Pours fairly clear blonde, small white head. Scent is buttery, oak, brett, full on . Milder malts. Taste is mildly tart, brett (clearly) milder, yet persistantly noticeable, butteryness. Diacetyl might be a cause, or the chardonnay barrel ( I've never had this much butter in Chardonnay though, let alone in a Chardonnay BA beer) . oaky, providing a hint of vanilla. A bit of bitterness, dominating the 'feel' of the finish. Medium to medium high carbo. Decent, but too buttery - especially in the finish.
