Light bronze with delicate fruity notes from a yeast that was once thought to be "wild."

Pours copper with a white head. Aroma seems leather and fruit. Med body. Flavor is malt and fruit with a nice, subtle Brett flavor stream. Delicious.

Clear golden and light amber coloured body with a very thin, fast-dying just off-white head, only about a centimetre tall. Aroma of grass, hay, rice, bitter hops and a touch of pine - strong and super dry throughout. Medium-bodied; Assertive grassy, herbal and almost too bitter flavoured up front with a big kick from pungent hops than form anything else, then some of the more-rounded notes come through. Aftertaste shows well, with some light pungency and a touch of citrus there. Overall, a nice beer that shows well, especially in what will be grassy and almost herbal finish. Aftertaste is nice and mellow and shows a bit more product along with the attitude that seems to be medicore througout with some decent flavours. I sampled this twleve ounce bottle purchased from Wine, Cheese & More in Chincoteague, Virginia (Eastern Short) on 28-May-2017 for US$1,99 sampled at home in Washington on 23-June-2017.
