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.

Funky, tart and oaky with some farmyardy notes, vinous grapes and muscat notes. --- Beer merged from original tick of Muscat - MMXVIII on 09 May 2024 at 15:43 - Score: 8

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