Gravity cask at Pigs Ear 2022 - day 1. Pours clear orange-gold with a bubbly, white head. Has some what I imagine is unintended funk. Lightly sweet, musty, some citrus, tangerine rind, brett. Light bodied with fine, massaging carbonation. Lightly drying finish, more tangerine, a few leaves, funky brett, pale grains. Quite nice in fact.
