B1 (I presume, by the text on the side) bottled 09-09-2016. Personally bought at the brewery on a Maine visit, brought back and cellared eversince. Finally opened it late June 2025. Opens with quite some force behind it. not at all a gusher though. Pours a lot of white, medium low stable white head. clear, slightly darker blonde beneath. Scent of AMLAM fills the room - a lot of wood, harsh tartness, yellow fruityness. up close some vanilla and a lot of Brett - orval style brett almost, very barnyard. Taste is harsh on the acidity, quite a bit of acetic as well. Bit of a burning acidity in the troath. Lactic. milder on the yellow fruits, but even more expressive on the brett than the aroma. High carbonation. Decent Amlam, but even in that 'category' not a great offering.

375ml bottle pours out golden topped with a white head. Nose is tart funky light fruit and some barrel. Taste is more of the nice funky light fruit notes.

Bottle: golden with a white head. Aroma is fruity and funky. Taste is mostly sour and moderately fruity. nice level of complexity, which is accentuated by the woody notes. Admittedly, I did not drink this when I was in the best of all states.

Taste is tart, tangy, woody, oaky, vinous, fruity, notes of white grapes, grape juice, nutmeg, a touch of grape sugar, mild funk, floral hints of chamomile. Good.

Sample @ BXL BeerFest 2018, shared with Belgian RB crew, thanks. Dorée, pas de col. Arôme est finement fruité avec une petite note de funk et rétro agrumes - le tout manquant un peu de complexité. Palais est haut en effervescence, citrique sur touche agrumes - pamplemousse avec un fini acidulé marqué dont un grincement de dents bien marqué.
