Bottle. Light barnyard, lemon, apple, and hay aroma. Golden yellow. Dry, lightly funky apple, and mildly bitter hay flavor. Okay body. Not as much funkiness or sourness as I would expected from wild fermentation.

750 ml glass bottle poured into a white wine glass. Clear golden, medium body, and no carbonation. Tastes like dry white wine, some bourbon, and hints of oak. Hoped for more apples or even more honey, not much flavor here.

Bottle at RBSG 17 Grand Tasting, thanks to Jeremy. Light, clear violet, head is more pink than purple. Berries on the aroma, flowery scents too, apples. Elderberries take off some of the cider tartness, nice fruity flavors, light considering the ABV. Not much evidence of the BBA.
