Brewery draught, 12/19/24. Mostly clear, muted brass. Fluffy, white head. Big juicy Brett in the nose with pineapple and light vanilla. Hints of earth. Very funky, enveloping and well-expressed. Seems like a solid biscuity/wheaty grain character behind it. Spritzy, juicy, no twang or near-butyric character. Not over-developed. Very carbonated but nicely attenuated with juicy tropical fruits and no oak tannin. Juicy, fruity, high mineral hops.

Bottle shared in London. Picked up from the brewery. Pours lightly hazed yellow-gold with a small, creamy white topping. Lightly sweet, subtle lemony tang, some perfume, kiwi, lemon balm. Light to medium bodied with delicate carbonation. Sweet finish, light tang, some oily lime, zest, lemony tartness. Easygoing and very drinkable.

Level 6 bottleshare. Thanks to LKS. A light haze on this gold beer, tiny pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, mildly dry, decent fine carbonation. Light malts, a light dry creamy sweetness. A mild funk on a fairly bright citrus background. Dry and slightly spicy finish. Nice enough.
