On tap @ Proletariat. As always, it's a dunkel location this but it looks like a cloudy orangeish colored one this. A tall dotting and lacing just off-white head on the top. Smells lovely. Saisonish and orangey. Fresh citrussy with tones of melon, cantaloupe, fresh cut grass and hints of human skin. A tasty slightly dry saison this. Mild oily in the texture and it's above average on the carbonation. Zesty, lime and some classic saison yeasty elements wrapping it all together. Clementine zest and hay in the tail. Nice tasting! 19.06.2015

Draft at Baita at Birreria. 6.6% according to the menu. Hazy yellowish with a white head and nice lace. Funky, fruity, and yeasty. Spice. Bright and flavorful. Creamy, with a great mouthfeel and a mid-dry, funky, softly tart close. Really good.

Whole Foods, Williamsburg bottle: pours golden with white head. Aroma is yeasty, some fruitiness. Taste was sweet with low bitterness. Not too impressed. Perfectly drinkable though.

Bottle from Eataly. Pours an unclear golden color with a large, fizzy, off-white head. Frunky and fruity on the aroma, some pineapple, lemon zest, and a bit of pepper / spice. Flavor is similar, though the fruit fades a bit and the spice is a bit more powerful. Mildly tart at most. Dry, peppery close. The mouthfeel is alright, but is hurt by a somewhat harshly high carbonation level. Solid.

750 ml bottle from Eataly, surprisingly not overpriced. Hazy yellowish-orange color with a frothy beige head and some frothy lacing. Fruity aroma, lots of yeast, a bit of funk. Peppery, with some herbal notes. Nice, yeast-forward flavor. Citrus notes come through nicely. Finishes bright, fizzy, and with a brett-style dryness. Despite a higher carbonation level, this is exceedingly drinkable. One of those beers where the more of it I drink the more I like it.

Draft at Ginger Man. Weird looking beer. Muddy brown. Almost looks like Yoo-hoo. Fruity, ginger aroma. Sweet, tart, and a little funky. Really interesting, though I'm not sure it totally works, glad I tried it.

750 ml bottle from Sparrow. Hazy pinkish-orange color with a white head that dissipates quickly down to pretty much nothing. Citrus and lacto on the aroma. Tart, wild yeast flavor. Bit of a fruity tang. Lightly dry. Somehow feels both tingly and softly carbonationed, not sure how that makes sense, but it's the case here. Clean, tart close. Blood orange is not particularly recognizable here, more of a generic citrus flavor for me.
