A combination of barrel-aged Nico and a barrel-aged Philly Lemon Sour matured in oak barrels with Brettanomyces brux & Clausennii. It’s a warm, golden-orange colour with a thin white head and bright clarity. Aromas of Amalfi lemons come through along with toasted straw, vanilla oak, and an earthy funkiness from the two-year-long Brett fermentation. The flavour offers a sharp citrus sourness with a rounded body and a long, dry finish.

Keg at Craft Beer Junction, Enid Street, 18/12/24. First Orbit rake in some time ... over a year my guess. Moderately hazed orange with an off white cap that veers to the edge. Nose is citric sherbets, funk, tangy passionfruit, vinous, white grape must, damp oak. Taste comprises modest funk, papaya, passionfruit, pissy citric shreds, oak, light brett, hedgerow. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a balanced puckering spike. Solid stuff.

Keg at CBJ. A light haze on this orange gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Light palate, semi dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Light malts. A very nice white wine vibe, kinda Chardonnay creamy. Light lemon vibe, very light. Light and semi dry finish. Tasty.
