5oz pour at The Magnet. Pours almost clear golden orange with white head. A ton of barnyard funk on the nose, wild yeast, and tart rhubarb. Flavour also has a ton of barnyard funk, wild yeast, and a great barrel character. The yeast does dominate the flavour and aroma, but there is some tartness from the rhubarb that complements very well. Damn good.

On tap at Garden Path - Bellingham, pours a hazy golden orange with a large white head. Aroma is very earthy, showcasing that rhubarb nicely — mostly earthiness rather than fruitiness. Flavour is funky, earthy and juicy in wonderful combination, with more of the juiciness from the rhubarb than suggested by the nose. Lovely funk character that combines well with the fruit. Excellent.

Draught, 5/18/24, Tip Tap. Hint of haze. Light brass-blonde-golden. Smattering of head. Vegetal, bit bitter, bit floral. Really nice expression and great lactic and funk behind it. Wow damn that's fucking dope rhubarb expression. Near perfect. Lambic lags a touch, still not as robust as the figue violette, but respectable, with light lactic and Brett. Good maltiness, easygoing finish with floral notes and dainty Brett.

Tap. Crow Sheffield. Hazed gold. White from dissipates somewhat. Sweet and slightly creamy fresh rhubarb. Mineral and dusty funk. Super clean with refreshing tartness. Mouthwatering overall. Crisp and fruity. Nice.
