Picture Pot is a blend of three brews produced in May/June of 2017. One wort fermented in our coolship before maturation in oak, the other two entirely in barrel.

We dry-hopped the resulting pale beer withwhole leaf Celeia, EKG and Amarillo.

Drink young for fresh hop aromatics. If aged, expect increasing brettanomyces funk.

Hazy orange beer, good cream colour head. A few dark bits of detritus at the bottom of the glass. Airy palate, fairly dry, decent fine carbonation. A pleasant enough mix of bretty funk and white wine and oak, never tastes that acid until the dry finish when it starts to irritate the back of the throat and that hugely reduces drinkability for me.

Bottle shared in London - cheers to Save. Pours lightly hazed orange-gold with a tight, creamy white head. Light sweet flavour, some bracing acidity, a little plastic grass, pale wood, light funk. Light bodied with fine, massaging carbonation. Tart, quenching finish, more pale wood, citric bite. Enjoyable.
