375mL bottle drunk 4/8/25.
Lightly-to-moderately hazy despite sitting in the fridge cold for a long while. Dense, creamy, off-white head, moderate retention.
Nutty oak tannin, low butteriness, with mildly fruity brett and a very well-expressed, authentic Nectarine quality that isn't overdone with acid. Nor does it seem too lactic. No acetic noted. Quite aromatic.
Juicy and sour up front with somewhat cringey acidity, though it's heavy lactic and heavy fruit acidity, at least, not bacterial-derived acetic. Very flavorful with well-done fruit character, not too much oak and a malty body with high attenuation. Is it a bit too sour? Yeah, almost certainly. But everything else here is very well-done.
