Bottle at home in London - sourced from Ales by Mail. Pours clear copper-gold with a creamy, off-white head. Well, it’s easy to tell that this beer has a moderate brett infection. The nose has some berries, damp leaves, bread, poo, wood. Light sweet flavor with a bit of funky tangerine, drying wood, damp earth, leafy hops, bready sugars. Light bodied with average carbonation. More citrusy notes on the finish, tangerine, light grassy and leafy bitterness, some grainy bread, mellow poopy diaper. With the infection, which hasn’t really fully taken hold yet, the beer is probably more interesting than it would be without the infection. Novel.

Bottle at home in London - sourced from Ales by Mail. Pours totally clear chestnut gold with a frothy tan/off-white lather. The aroma has dry, leafy hops, berries, grains. Light sweet flavor with strong toasty, grassy bitterness, some earth, pine, grain husk, tea bag, berry skins. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Drying, bitter and lightly astringent on the finish, with dry and toasty malts, grains, leaves, tobacco, faint plastic, leather, more berry skins and grain husk. The aftertaste is a bit unpleasant, too grass and astringent. Could do with some tweaking.
