Bottle at WTF 4. Pours a hazy gold with small white head that diminishes to nothing. The aroma is strong funk, oak, apple skin. Medium body, light funk, wood, light tartness, good.

On draught at EBF, 3/22/14.
Moderately cloudy, pale golden body is topped by a small, somewhat short-lived white head.
Nose is full of brett and lacto biproducts. Certainly some enjoyable brett acids in there with a strong lactic presence adding cheesey funk and lots of musty cellar notes. The whole crew seems present here; horseblanket, lemons, limes, leather, etc...Pretty interesting nose, good strength to it.
The brett and lacto flavors noted in the nose jump out in the flavor, right away, but are soon joined on the end by a plethora of funky flavors that are less than desirable. Strong presence of celery, lettuce, sweaty gym socks, cooked carrots, tons of mold and black pepper notes. Really an endless supply of dirtiness and veggies. The base beer was a bit lackluster as well, having been borderline overattenuated leading to a rather weak texture/mouthfeel. Still, the aroma and initial flavor are spot on for a Belgian lambic, just too many undesirable critters in there as well.
