Pours golden yellow and murky. On a darker beer, this cloudiness would seem ominous. Here, it just kinda looks more viscous than it actually is. The head is small, white and fades away pretty quickly. The aroma is big on citrus. No idea what they actually used, but it reminds me of limes, oranges and citron. Some vanilla, oak. Mild funk. Some grass. There’s an unexpected lactic note to it. The taste is fairly sour with a lot of citrus. More lactic than acetic, but the sourness is relatively strong, surprisingly so for an all brett beer. It’s all citrus peels, funk and yogurt with a splash of apple cider vinegar. Tasty and fairly refreshing. Fair bit of pucker. Some body to it. Carbonation isn’t very high, but it prickles on the tongue. It’s similar to Almanac Farmer’s Reserve #4. I quite like citrus sours, but I kinda think the citrus is hiding some messiness. That’s probably not fair. I’m just not sure how I would feel about this beer if the citrus and sour were dialed back.

Bottle from Capitol Beer in Sacramento, CA. Pours hazy light amber with no noticeable head. Aroma is musty citrus. Med body, or nearly. Flavor is instant sour, followed by definite sweatsox, with some grapey/mustiness. It’s mouth devouring sour, apparently based on citrus. Very nice drink!

Draft - Nice tart sweet citrus with Brett. Cloudy orange with no head. Lots of funk, tart and bitter with a sweet citrus in the background.

Hazy yellow, lots of lacto on the nose, light brett, quite tart with pithy bitterness, I’m guessing from the tangelo, relatively light body. Very refreshing, I could go back to this.

Draught at Falling Rock Tap Housein Denver, on April 9 2014.I only wrote down Crooked Stave St. Bretta, and on the online tap list for the Saison Night that wasn’t on there, taking a shot it was the spring version.Acidic, to sour taste. Cloudy apricot color, small white head. Fizzy mouthfeel, low bitterness. Funky aftertaste. Acidic, funky, stable scent.

Tasting at Bruce’s pad. Hazy gold beer, small bubbly white head. Crisp palate. Zingy citrus fruits - grapefruit and orange - tangerine with a touch of lemon. Seltzer salts. Light dry finish with a sharp carbonated nip. Tasty.

Bottle thanks to Bruce. It pours lightly hazy gold with a small white head. The nose is musty, dank, barnyard, manure, sulphur, spice and fart. The taste is crisp, tart, lemon, grapefruit, sherbet, alka seltzer, some soap with a dry, citric finish. Medium body and fine, prickly carbonation. Smells a bit musty, but the taste makes up for it. As with the other version no great depth, but pretty tasty.

Bottle shared at Bruce’s in London - thanks to Bruce. Pours hazy yellow-gold with a wispy white cream head. Tangy citrus nose, notes of tangerine, lemon, tangy wheat. Light sweet flavor with sturdy yet understated tangy lemon, doughy wheat bread, some dry hay. Light bodied with average carbonation. Clean finish, fairly dry, with further lemony tang, slight straw bitterness, hints of lemon rind. Nice.
