473 ml can. Pours amber with full head. Aromas of fruity esters, a bit of farmyard, quince, mashed stoned fruit and bready malts. Flavors follow same with some additional oak. Can't really get much wine barrel effects. More of a farmhouse ale. Quite nice.

500mL bottle. Pours yellowish with almost no head. Aroma is sour. Flavour is slightly sour, a bit of mango. Not getting any rum or coconut. Not really sure why this exists. Less horrific than I was expecting, given the proposed flavour combination, but somehow had almost no distinctive flavour.

500mL bottle, pours a minimally hazy bright golden with a small white head. Aroma is very strange, with lots of lacto, some tartness, a touch of rum, no much coconut. Flavour is just bizarre, with a weird mix of coconut, a touch of rum, and lacto. The rum is very far back, but it still tastes like a kettle sour with a hint of coconut. This is just a bad idea. It's not a disaster, but there's little to like about it.

(notes from Nov 17, 2023 because RB wouldn't log in) Poured from the tap. Hazed yellow with no head. Kiwi, feint rum, nice subtle sour notes and complexity. Could use some more depth, a touch thin, but a nice sipper.

500ml @ Matt's new place. Appearance: hazy golden with almost no head. Aroma: some nice sweet and tart apricots, a bit of apricot. Taste: along the same lines, some wild notes, moderately acidic (but not over the top), nice apricots, and little sweetness, some oak. Overall: very good surprisingly, especially when you drink it with dregs, when it starts to remind the apricot jam.
