Poured from 500mL bottle (thanks Derek & JF). Clear blonde with small white head. Nice soft sweet white wine barrel notes, but why do it with a 3.7% abv pilsner base? Nice barrel, but weird combo. A bit flat. Okay.

500mL bottle, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out rustic notes more like a saison, with traces of apple from the oak barrels, and crisp crackery malt. Flavour kind of falls flat, with subtle grass and dry biscuity malt. I don't know if this was more vibrant pre-barrel-aging, but as of now, it's pretty dull. There's no hoppiness or crispness; there's just a very subtle oakiness that lingers a bit. Odd choice of a beer to put in barrels. Not convincing.

A lightly hazed golden pils with a very thin white head. In aroma, nice crisp biscuit malt with German Saaz hops, light mineral notes, pleasant. In mouth, a nice biscuit malt with grassy German hops, light mineral notes, pleasant and smooth.
