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.

25/III/24 - on tap @ De Geus van Gent (Gent), BB: n/a (2024-186) Thanks to Erwin for sharing today’s beers!
Clear orange blond beer, small creamy white head, unstable, a bit adhesive. Aroma: nice, lots of brett, funky, a hint of rhubarb, somewhat herbal, a bit floral, nice! MF: ok carbon, light to medium body. Taste: gentle acidity, a bitter touch, some sulphur, a bit earthy, dry, a bit of rhubarb indeed, nice! Aftertaste: very dry, a bit herbal, a little bitter, dry finish, some sulphur. Not a lot of rhubarb though...
