Bottle split at Level 6 Tasting, thanks to the Wingmane, 02/03/23. Murky orange topped with an off white cap that thins to a swirl. Nose is tangy apricot, funk, pissy citric shreds, damp hay. Taste comprises on the turn peach, quince, funk, dry rot, hedgerow, lemon rind. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, drying close with a balanced puckering edge. Quite bracing but ultimately balances well.

Bottle shared in London - cheers to Dave. Pours unclear gold with a small, creamy white head. Light sweet flavour with good, assertive acidity, some lemon, quince, peach. Light bodied with delicate, massaging carbonation. Quenching finish, more citric bite, a nip wood, grass, salty sweat. Sound.

Bottle. Pours a hazy gold with a white head that dissipates quickly to the edges. Aroma has a slightly cheesy funk with sour peach and a touch of oak underlying. Flavor starts with tart peach that grows sour and has a bit of a funky cheese note supporting.
