On tap at Lovebucket. Aroma is tangy lemon, peach and melon flavours with noticeable acidity. Flavour is super tart up top leading into big juicy stone fruit notes and a dry finish. Really lovely.

Bottle from Bine & Vine. Pours really hazy gold/grapefruit juice color with a slight white head. Aroma of funk/white berry/wood/citrus/fruit/ Wow! Med body or nearly. Flavor is mildly/moderately sour citrus/fruit/white berry/wood. Brett is really a supporting flavor. Earthy, tasty, Brett. This is really good.

On draught at Brave Horse Tavern. Hazy yellow-gold color with a medium white head that dissipates steadily to a film. Strings of lacing. Tropical fruit, yeast and malt in the nose. Medium body with flavors of oak, tart lemon, herbal yeast and bready malt. The finish is moderately sour with a funky citrus aftertaste. Good beer all around.

Bottle shared by Willrunforbeer, much thanks! Aroma is light oak, mild undescribed fruits, and hints of lactic acid. Maybe a traces of yogurt culture.
The flavor is really interesting, a subtle Danky pine found through out the entire sip with notes of rotten fruit, mild Bretty yeast, and a mild subtle white wine barrel treatment. The barrel doesn’t come off tannic at all. Good amount of tartness. Palate is pretty nice. I really enjoyed everything I have sampled from this series. Thank you Brian for the share!
