Bottle, from the brewery. Pale amber, slight haze. It froths up with a thick head, a bit too thick, but the effervescence is refined. The head ends up forming these crazy formations. The aroma definitely brings to mind a brett IPA, just a touch of brett, and some floral hop notes. If you're going to suffer an infection on your IPA, a mild brett infection is definitely the way to go. On the palate, it's dry, nice bitterness, again that really mellow brett accent, bitter grapefruit finish with a hint of lemon and honey. Pretty sure it wasn't described as an Orval hommage but that's what it tastes like and I'm here for that.

Hazy amber, dense beige head. Light piney/fruity nose. Soft malt, fruity with decent body. Perfumey notes. Late long hop bitterness. Great lace
