Bottle. Gusher. Hazy golden color, large white head. Aroma of herbs, dust and funk and wet blankets. Taste is peppery, dusty, tart rotten fruit. Nice complexity, not sure it all comes together. Grapes become more evident as it warms.

Bottle. Clear gold with a white head. 3+ Light floral, mandarin and mango notes over hay and light biscuit. Not all that sweet but pleasantly rounded pale malt before a little fruit and some grassy/ weedy bitterness at the end. Not interesting but well put together.

Cloudy golden/amber with almost no head. Aroma is grapes, apple pie, fizzy tablet. Nice fruit stuff. Taste is wine sourness with lots of pie sweetness, and bitter phenolic alcohol (not bad). Medium heaviness, much sour carbonation. A little spicyness while swallowing. Lots of wine in the finish. Great!

Bottle. Hazy orange color with white head. Aroma is grape funk, fresh, some candied sugar, like a lesser copy of Orval. Taste is grapes, apricots, pineapple, a bit bitter. High carbonation. Slightly boozy in the back. Grape aftertaste. Very nice!

Bolle. Grey, orange golden, offwhite head. Leathery, lambiclike aromatics, white balsamic vinegar, flowery notes. Fullbodied, dry chewy, light vanilla, phenolic fruity notes - brett, a bit sweeter, ok barrellike finish. Like a sweet lambic, fun.

Bottle, bb 4/18 (!). 10C. Pale orangish amber with a white head that settles to a cm. Aroma of mango, passionfruit, pepper, crackers, some caramel. Light bodied, moderate carbonation. Some crackers but really all about the hops - enough though I guess that it’s neither empty nor harsh for the first couple of swigs. Surprisingly as much spicy as fruity: the tropical fruit come early, the spices arrive at the dry and fairly bitter end. The bottle says only 25IBU but it is edging up on too bitter for its body for me.

Bottle at Hair of the Dog, Bangkok. Poured a hazy straw colour with a thin broken white head. The aroma is big grassy resin hop, grapefruit citrus. The flavour is moderate to strong bitter with a big resinous hop, tart citrus, light pepper spice palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Where did the hop bucket go? I think I know the answer to that one!

Can. Amber with a white head. 3+ Moody aroma of ripe grapefruit, mango, some passionfruit, grainy bread. Light bodied, moderate carbonation. Lots of fruit but no citrus. A little pine and pepper creep in at the discreetly bitter finish. Distinctive and good.

Bottle from 2016 Boise stone fruit tasting on 8/27. Light ruby body with a pink fluffy head. Aroma is cherries, cough drops and a whiff of bandaids. Taste follows with the mostly too sweet cherries. A bit cloying.

500 ml bottle from Sparrow. Pours an unclear darker orange color with a sheeting beige head and some drippy lacework. Sour, fruity aroma. Heavy vinegar, lots of yeast, fruit, and grainy spice. Vinous and vinegary taste. Very sour and a bit tart too. I would call this a sour sour. Not too balanced, just a sour beer with a vinegary mouthfeel. I'm a fan of the style, and this is pretty good, but a bit too vinegary for my personal preference.
