Bottle from De Bierverteller, Utrecht. Aroma is bretty with malt, stewed overripe fermented fruits, funk, some caramel. Flavour is mild tart and sourish with a fairly dry finish. Body is medium. It doesn't all come together, but I dig the heavy brett funk influence.

Nice brett. Tart, citric, red fruits, oaky, funky. Acidic, rather short finish.

0.375 l bottle, bottled in November 2017, cellared for almost a year. Clear, deep amber with a massive, foamy, almost stable, off-white head. Slightly sweetish, gently funky, moderately fruity aroma of raisins, caramel, figs, some brett and a touch of strawberry jam. Moderately sweet, gently dry, minimally sourish, gently fruity and slightly funky taste of caramel, raisins, figs, tobacco, leather, some nettles, some brett and hints of red grapes, followed by a short, gently bitter, quite woody-dry, moderately funky and even a little vinous finish. Thin to medium body, quite effervescent and minimally astringent mouthfeel, very lively carbonation. Interesting beer with a nice bretty touch. Unfortunately over-carbonated, spoils the fun a little.

Sampled draft @ TCBW 2018. Ugly brown, little tanned head. Nose is massive brett, oxidation & brett. Taste & boy is just lemon, oxidation & brett, weird, bit too dead oxidized, heavy brett but still some good.
