330mL can, pours a clear golden with a tiny white head. Nose is gentle, with oak and crisp apple skins detectable. Flavour has a dry oak character, with crisp apple skins, gentle wild yeast, and a touch of bugginess. Real nice oak and wild yeast character. Excellent.

(On tap @ Bar Isabel, Toronto, Jan 13 2016) Pours clear straw gold with basically no head. Aroma of quite tart green apples, vinous with lots of oak bordering on buttery Chardonnay, some nice funky Brett characteristics of wet hay and earth, some leather. Flavour has a bright tart apple core, some skin, healthy amounts of oak with light vanilla, leather and tannin, lightly bitter and earthy, a little bit of decaying vegetation funk. Finish is reasonably crisp and nearly dry. Mouthfeel is moderate body and low carbonation. Very solid presence of oak and Brett, a good cider for food.
