Bottle thanks to vin. Pours clear golden yellow, small white head, decent lacing. Aroma is hF funk, stonefruit, lemon, dusty. Flavor is light tart, light funk, stonefruit, a bit watery. Light body. Remarkable at 2%. Gimme a case.

750mL bottled May 19, 2021, drunk 8/5/22. Clear brassy-golden with an ever-so-slight rosy tint. Small, white head shows moderate-to-low retention. Mild and fruity with lovely, easygoing Brett and light plum that adds a layer without dominating the beer. Sparse, cracker and/or wheat-like grain notes support gently, as well. No alcohol or flaw. Quite aromatic and bright, clean. Soft, well-attenuated, malty and full of lively Brett with gentle plum acidity as an afterthought and just a hint of juiciness from the fruit, as well. Malts are quite soft. Everything is wonderfully balanced with no one characteristic dominating. Incredibly flavorful and drinkable.

Bottle thanks to William. Pours a hazy gold with small white head that lasts. The aroma is plum skin, oak, lemon zest, mineral. Slick body, light plum, citrus, mineral, light tartness, enjoyed this.

750ml (thx, Marc-Antoine G.!) @ Sales Force. Appearance: a bit hazy blonde with a white head. Aroma: nice funk with a recognizable HF character, maybe just some generic fruity notes on the background. Taste: funky, a bit tart, no plums detected. Overall: I suppose plums have added to the body as it doesn't seem watery at all as the original. Awesome for a 2% thing.

Poured from 750mL bottle. Hazy blonde with small white head. Farmhouse yeast, light funk, not getting plums, but I do enjoy this slightly more compared to regular Charlie based on what I recall (from my rating).

750mL bottle, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out that nice farmhouse funk that HF beers are characteristic of, followed by crisp biscuity malt -- pretty laid back as expected. Flavour is nicely funky, lightly tart, and crisp; there's notes of farmhouse funk, gentle tart citrus, and crisp biscuity malt, with light acidity and tartness on the finish. Pretty flavourful for such a low ABV beer. Very good for what it is.
