75cl Bottle from Hoptimism. Appearance - deep golden going into orange/pink. Nose - generous but dry blackberry, with light sweetness, then tartness and tang of the saison yeast. Taste - it delivers as expected. Lovely zingy, blackberry, but all held beautifully within the tight saison structure. Palate - close to medium bodied, long enduring middle and finish. Intense, tight and long structure. Overall - wonderful stuff. Possibly beer of the year so far.

Bottle, via the brewery online shop. Corked and caged, and welded in. Took some effort getting in this one. Soft haze on a coppery red. Slim ring of white. Nose has sweaty, leathery brett. Overripe blackberries. Some wine dregs. Taste is fairly sweet and fruity, with a tart and dry, mouldy blackberry thing going on. Medium body. Some oiliness. Foamy carbonation. Minimal acidity. Soft, tart fruit to finish.
