From Good Times Oakland, looks like it was bottled in the summer of 2019.
It pours a clear pale gold with almost no head of foam, no lacing, no foam after a few seconds.
It smells of tart apples, musty, Brett like, somewhat acetic.
The taste is tart apples, acetic, sour to a certain degree, hints of Brettanomyces, which I had hoped for.
This is tasty, dry, sour, refreshing. I would definitely drink this again.

Bottle at BBT 11/2023 #2. Med-thin body, medium carbonation. Medium sourness, med-light tartness, low sweetness, low bitterness. Overall quite dry, with medium natural sour cherry, light coffee, hints of bourbon. Light warmth, rather providing complexity, not booziness. Overall easy sipping. Good one.
