0.375 l bottle from Goblet Beer Store, Zagreb, shared with Marko and Ogi. Marko's birthday present. Unclear orange, minimal off-white head. Aroma is fruity at first, apricot, peach, plum, glue and funky notes later. Lightly cheesy and bretty. Hints of citrus. Flavour is tart cherry, tangerine, lemon zest, ripe peach, sour apricot, lightly cheesy, some funky spice and some berries. I don't sense the pear, but many other fruity notes, yes. Slightly creamy, moderate carbonation, Light tart finish. Complex, rich, soft, nicely done.

Notes from October 2012 Bottle from Made in Oregon. Body is a cloudy mellow gold. Stiff, stubborn, pop-marked off-white head. Smells of pungent clove, bitter rind, & fruit juice. Dusty malt, leaves, alcohol, & Play-Doh on the back end. Unrelated, but the wax on the cap has this awesome ambergris scent to it. Belgian, sticky tripel sort of sweetness. Pretzel-like malt. Lemon twang. Mellow yeast. Beer is pretty warm by now. A little mushroom. Leafy, shy, bitter finish. Frothy. Strong carbonation that faltered when I needed it. A bit too sweet & heavy for me. The brett version thinned things out nicely though.

Notes from 11/13. Pressing backspace just when you're about to finish up your review really ticks me off... Bottle from letspourdotcom. Maybe a month in the fridge. Poured into a fluted tulip thingie. Stiff peaks & a slightly hazed pale golden body. Lots of activity underneath. Peppery, doughy, flowery/soapy bittersweet scent, turning a bit sharp. Tastes of biscuit, bittergreens, & flour/pancake mix. Ugly, unrelenting Asprin bitterness from middle on end. Some weird residual peanut flavor that is more obvious when it's really cold. Very strange. Big, heavy-handed carbonation. Mellow alcohol. Foamy. Dry. That peanut flavor really threw me for a loop. Wouldn't of been a pretty score anyway though.

6 years cellared bottle from Hoppiness, 0.75l, shared with CanCrusher. Aroma is vinous, peachy and woody with mild brett note. Pours cloudy amber color with thin soapy white head and average visible carbonation. Taste starts with tart peaches and white wine rounded with mild bretty note, follows by faint oak and vanilla with smooth mouthfeel without any alcohol feeling. Full body, slick texture and average carbonation in palate. Wild & smooth peaches…
