Quite a straightforward wild ale - the funk is present but subdued, and the peach is prevalent. It doesn’t break any new ground, but it’s quite a nice wild ale.

CBJ Bottleshare. Thanks to Colin. A light haze on this pale gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Airy palate, fairly dry, reasonable fine carbonation. Soft creamy malts. A mildly tart winey fruity vibe. Light and semi dry finish. Tidy, could not drink a pint.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Yoav's place. Hazy yellow. Funk, fruitiness, oak, some citrus, sour, juicy, light bitterish note. Great stuff.

Bottle. Picked up at Beer Stop Dronfield and shared down SMOD. Hazed orange with a pretty lovely white foam. Nose has fresh oak and orange peel. Bright lemon brett. Clean malts. Hint of flora. Taste is super dry, with a fleeting floral hop bitterness. Super clean and smooth mouthfeel with soft and foamy carbonation. Dry and oaky on the finish with notes of oaky citrus bitterness. Quality.
