Opaque and pale. Thin head. Interesting aroma, mellow muscat, light bugginess, and some sweet pale malt. On the palate, it's got a bit of alcohol, and then kicks in with some grapey notes. Still some residual sugars and a bit vinous.

[2018 vintage] 750mL bottle. Pours cloudy yellow with thin white head. Aroma has dirty wood, wild yeast. Flavour has some oak, mild grape, light tannins. Pretty alcohol-forward and unpleasantly tart on the finish. Aroma is nice, but the flavour does not follow through well.

750mL bottle, pours a hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma reveals lots of musty grape skins, some earthiness, and a touch of wild yeast. Flavour is rather musty and floral, with dusty grape skins, alcohol, earthiness, and some wild yeast. There's some fusel alcohol notes. Somewhat harsh at this point -- no idea if this is how it was upon release. Messy, chaotic and lacking integration. Definitely not one of the better Floodland beers.

More spice than I'd expect from a Muscat wild, but fun.
