750ml bottle thanks to Jer. Pours out a cloudy straw topped with a small head. Nose is amazing lemon oak dusty notes and lots of tannins. Taste is more of the lemon oak barrel and tart.

750mL bottle, pours a cloudy blonde with a tiny white head. Nose is very wordy, with loads of tannins and oak. Flavour is aggressive with the woody tannins, bringing out loads of oak and wood. Very tannin heavy. Fairly aggressive carbonation. Excellent.

Bottle thanks to Jared, shared at RBSG Grand tasting. Pours a hazy yellow gold with small white head that lasts. The aroma is strong funk, wood, earth. Thick mouth, strong funk, hay, yeast, fruity, dry finish, really enjoyed this one.

Bottle at Sloshfest. Hazy yellow colour, white head. Aroma of acid, funk, poo, light floral, apricot. Flavour is very sour, acidic, light floral, lemon, light fruity, funky, sour finish, peppery like fresh raspberries. Way too sour for me. Light-bodied.

Bottled, on the RBSG bus. Grape nose with dusty fun. Cloudy blonde with lace. Flavor of sour grapes and other interesting fruit, lime pear, and lactic acid. Tasty and refreshing with very interesting fruit.

Sampled this at a sour tasting that Tomme Arthur showed up at out of the blue at. This one poured with plenty of head, but was not overly carbonated, which was a bit of a surprise to me based on the initial pour. Yellow-orange body, with a white head. Aroma is one that reminds me a bit of citrus grapefruit. Notes of citrus with a heavy amount of tea leaves and herbal notes. Yeast character in there - a bit reminding me of a wit but with plenty of funk. Very interesting.
