(500ml bottle c/o my dude Herbalist, thanks!) Pour is nearly clear copper-red with a decent but stable head of off-white foam and a little lacing. Aroma is nice rich fruit, red wine and tart cherry especially, some earthy stuff that's more haskap/blueberry-focused, lactic and woody, softly funky, a little oak. Flavour is a lot duller than the nose would suggest, lean berries and lightly acidic wine, some rapsberry in there, lactic, quite lean, above average tannins, very mineral, low funk. Finish is lean lactic wine, maybe a bit oxidized, moderate tannin, berry skins. Medium-bodied, slick, above average cabonation. Smells nice, but ultimately dull and uninsipring. Maybe oxidized a bit but I can't believe that it is all there is to it, given that it's a style with solid aging potential.

A hazed reddish copper ale with a thin lacing white head. In aroma, sweet fruity raspberry jam with light Brett, light lactic notes, light raspberries, very nice. In mouth, a nice raspberry jam with Brett, light lactic notes, complex and smooth.

Poured from bottle at FHF 2022 (notes from Aug 06, 2022). Fairly hazy deep gold with small white head. Light funk, saison yeast underlay, slightly vinous, decent.

Hazy and pale. No head. Tart, woody, with nice vinous accents. Stone fruit, and good juicy character. Excellent.

Bottle sample at Farmhouse Fest 2022, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out mixed bugs, some nice white wine notes, and gentle tart berries. Flavour is full of wild bugs and red wine notes, tannins, oak, and very subdued berry skins. Dry, vinous and buggy, with wonderful depth. Excellent.
