On tap at Mikkeller & Friends, pours a cloudy orange with a small off-white head. Aroma of tart light fruits, wheat, and low barnyard funky notes. Flavour of sour fruits, oak barrels, and barnyard funk. Very tart and funky, with a touch of acidity and with a wheaty tart finish. Complex and so easily drinkable. Great stuff.
