Location: Shared bottle at dbarnold's, 10/16/11
Aroma: The nose is crazy, with hops, brett yeast, and wine all mixed together
Appearance: It pours a cloudy golden-orange with a white head, and good lacing
Flavor: Has a good flavor, the combo from the nose worked well, and it has a nice bitterness
Palate: The mouthfeel was pretty nice as well, medium (plus) body, and average carbonation
Overall Impression: This was some seriously interesting stuff. Really, one of the more unique beers I have tried lately. Excellent purchase Dave! It is always a good move to take the advice of the fine people over at State Line. All around, this one was really good. I bumped the overall score up for the uniqueness.
