7fiddy shared with the fam. It pours clear deep orangey - copper with a dissipating white head. The aroma is vinous, tart, tangy, sherbet, lots of crunchy red grape, must, juniper, fig, lactic, cranberry and sherbet. The taste of quite bright, bracing acidity, tart, puckering, vinous, grape skin, must, damp oak, dull funk, cranberry, redcurrant, crunchy granny smith apple and sherbet with a drying finish. Medium body and soft, fluffy carbonation. Nice beer overall, just a touch too acidic.

Armsby draught, 8/24/24. Deeper/darker bronze with deep rose suggestions. Small, off-white head. Nose is mellow grape and lots of mineral and easygoing yeast character. Juicy, fruity grapes don't dominate, though the saison character is mild. Not acidic. In the mouth, it's similar to the nose, with an approachable, chewy-malty body that is quite dry, but not too much so. Fruity, juicy grapes add just enough acidity and the beer ends satisfyingly with ample body and low acidity.

Bottle sample at Farmhouse Fest 2022, pours a clear pale golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out a strange funk to it, a weird musty earthiness to it. Flavour is metallic, with oak, some rotting fruits, and a strange funk. Metallic and rather messed up. This is bad.
