On tap at PreFunk Nampa. Clear deep golden pour. Lovely coarse white head light stone fruit and funky some Brett notes. Quite sour with som more stone fruit, light peach and apricot maybe. Mostly a straight up open sour. Very tasty. Glad to find it out here

Poured from the tap @ MBCC 2023 green session (finally adding my notes). Clear-ish yellow with small white head. Mild sour tartness, nice balance.

Hazy and pale. Thin. Toasty, with a bit of smoke. Slightly yeasty, not bad, but there's some phenols getting in the way here.

Bottle pour at Farmhouse Fest 2024. Pours cloudy yellow with white head. Aroma is dominated by a pungent old wood smell. Flavour has stone fruit, wild yeast. It's fine.

Bottle pour at FHF 2024, pours a clear pale golden with a small white head. Aroma is full of phenols upfront, with subdued wild yeast. Flavour is full of phenolic notes that dominate, with tart citrus, and smoky burnt rubber. This is fucked — something wrong here.
