Bottle shared at the Columbus tasting, 25/07/2018. Many thanks. A clear nut brown coloured pour with no head. Aroma is earthy sour, roast, airy brett. Flavour is composed of semi sweet, earthy roast, light liquoirice, bitter black berries and chocolate. Palate is semi sweet, mellow sour, airy lowish carbonation. Funky farmyard sour lingering.

Hazy amber beer, tidy cream colour head. Palate is lighy and pretty dry, reasonable fine carbonation. Thin malts, some very dry creamy sweetness. Dry pithy hops, tangy, mildly spicy and with some bitterish peel. Dry finish. Doing next to nothing for me, I'd rather have a pint of well conditioned cask bitter.

Level 6 Bottleshare. Thanks to Dave. Hazy gold beer, tiny white head. Palate is thin and mildly dry, modest fine carbonation. Tangy lemon and dry seltzer. A little awkward stone fruits on the back end. Tangy finish. Does nothing for me.
