Keg draught at BrewDog Brighton. Dark gold and cloudy with a thin uneven white head. Aroma is horse blanket funk, light musty citrus. Tastes really funky but not outright sour. Very overripe citrus. More sourness appears closer to the finish. Stings a little in the back if the throat. Medium body with almost no carbonation. A great experience but perhaps a beer to be respected rather than loved?

Pale, with a light haze. Medium head. There's a big fruity note, like salmonberries, and light malt.

Bottle pour at FHF 2024, pours a clear bright yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out bright tangy hops, some rustic notes, and toasted grains. Flavour is hoppy as hell, with lots of tangy dry-hopping, rustic saison yeast, and toasted grains. Tangy, hoppy, and integrated. Excellent.

FHF 2024. Appearance: hazy golden with a white head. Aroma: very fresh and fruity, nice. Taste: a bit tart, quite bitter. Finishes with a lot of hops. Overall: kinda too bitter to me, not very nicely balanced.

(Draught at BrewDog Camden, London, 9 May 2024) Pale golden colour with big, frothy, white head. Hoppy, spicy nose with notes of citrus, hay, bread, spices, cardamom and yeast. Fruity, spicy, slightly tart taste with citrus, grapefruit, lemon peel, hay, bread, funky yeast, grass and a balanced citric/grassy bitterness. Medium body, dry. Fresh, tasty and quite complex. Very nice.
