Bottle drunk 4/1/17.
Good clarity to this beeswax-yellow and golden bodied beer. Creamy, white head atop is small but shows pretty good retention for the style.
Soft and inviting, the nose is not really at all what I expected. There’s a lot more base malt (honey, vanilla, various light grains), floral character, soft herbal hops and Sacch. esters than expected. For a spontaneously fermented beer, this is very tame. Must be cooler and/or longer conditioning than usual? Not really sure. Anyways, some very light lemon and soft funk with fruity Brett notes and nothing aggressive at all, nor any alcohol or flaw.
Lightly tart and yet with a very supple, lightly sweet (honey, whitebread, cookie) malt backbone and tight, natural carbonation. Lemon, other various citrus and light kumquat notes all dance about with soft funk, fruity Brett and various grain/cereal notes on the finish. Little/no twangy lactic acidity that you get in many mixed ferm beers. Maybe a bit strong on the citrus element from the hops though it’s got very low bitterness. Good dryness and very drinkable with no alcohol or flaw. Great intro to this brewery and will certainly be picking up more.

Pours slightly hazed pale gold into a tulip. Bright white conglomerate head with good retention recedes to mottle surface. Funky yeast and citrus aromas. Dry with sweet lemon and brett funk front to back. Lasting tart lime finish.

[2/5/17] From the tank at Plan Bee Farm Brewery in Poughkeepsie. Thanks Evan. Funky, fruity, cellar, cobwebs, lots of oak, sourish, earth, some flowers.

Poured from a 750 ml bottle. Aroma started off a bit phenolic with some peppery, herbal Brett notes, but that faded and fruit notes became more apparent. Mango, guava, some over ripe peaches and apricots, green grapes and a bit of citrus. Light oak notes. Hints of grain. Pours a very hazy, golden yellow straw with a large, frothy, white head that quickly recedes into itself leaving behind a small film that lingers; larger on the edges. Flavor has a medium light to light acidity with a faint sweetness and a fairly dry finish. Medium phenolic notes with a herbal, grassy and peppery character. Medium light fruit notes with pineapple, mango, guava, melon and stone fruit. Light citrus and green grape notes. Faint oak. Soft water characteristics. Mouthfeel is light bodied with high carbonation and a slight creaminess to it. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a nice beer but not an amazing one. Good Brett characteristics, if perhaps a bit too phenolic, but the phenolics are not plastic-like at all. Decent fruit notes with a bit of oak and grain. Nice mouthfeel.
