Bottle by way of a trade. Hazed gold. Slim lasting white foam. Gin botanicals. Sweet white grape. Red grape skin. Yeasty background. Super easy drinking. Stalky bitterness. Fruity botanical finish. Tasty gear. Drinks swell.

Bottle shared at Craft Beer Junction - Bermondsey. Pours mostly clear yellow-gold with a small, creamy white head. Lightly sweet with nice gin botanical notes, ripening tart lemon, mellow acidity. Light bodied with delicate carbonation. Balanced finish, light warmth, more lemon, gin barrel. Superb. Crazily drinkable for the ABV.

[notes] Poured from bottle @ FHF 2023 (Aug 12, 2023). Clear gold with small white head. Mild gin and botanicals, feint vinous notes, blend comes together nicely.

Pale gold, no head. Big gin barrel aroma. Rosemary, juniper, soft body. Light tartness, and a barrelly finish.

Bottle pour at Farmhouse Fest 2023, pours a clear golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of gin barrels, oak, and some earthy bugginess. Flavour is full of gin barrels, bugs, and some oaky notes. Nice combo of gin and bugs, but not my favourite combo of flavours. Solid.

A taster shared with Josh, Matt, Phill, and Ryan during FHF with priceless Rachel's (yup, again!) help in organizing all the mess with glasses. Appearance: a bit hazy blonde with a white head. Aroma: grapes and botanicals. Taste: same, a bit acidic. Overall: pretty good.
