Poured from 500mL bottle (w/ the brewnosers). Last blend before they shut down (different blends have different fruits). Cloudy yellow with minimal white head. Passionfruit, soft tartness, really nice.

(500ml bottle from ANBL Shippigan c/o my girl Phyllomedusa) Pours nearly clear bright gold with a small white head and no real lace. Aroma of pineapple, guava, mango, some canned tropical fruit, banana, tart citrus, wine barrel, some kind of mulchy and vaguely sulfuric funk. Flavour is quite acidic, notes of pineapple, floral guava, mango, and banana esters (more when cold), bracing lemony lactic acidity and maybe some acetic edges too, tart wine grapes vibe to it, middle of the sip onwards dries out some with banana esters coming to the fore more, some soft barnyard funk and wood, loads of floral guava popping as the beer warms and melding with the esters, nice soft bitterness from the wood, lingering guava and white wine vibes. Medium-bodied, failrly fine active carbonation. Nice tropical fruited ale once you adapt to the initial acidity, the pineapple when cold transfers to guava when warmer. Shame the brewery has since closed.

Tasting at Phill's, bottle
Gushing bottle. Cloudy pale blond colour, the head disappears quickly. Nice aroma, sour, apricots. Prominent acidity, it has a good fruity character, and good fermentation character too, funky, astringent.
Very good.

500mL bottle, pours a cloudy bright peachy yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out faded peaches, a touch of phenols, and earthy funk. Flavour brings out dry, musty peaches, some earthy funk, and a touch of farmhouse notes. A little muddled—the peaches come out decently, but a little earthy. Not bad.

Cloudy. Yellow. Thin head. Nice apricot aroma, there's a bit of vinous accents, and a bit of barrel in the finish. Good complexity and balance to this one.

Bottle: Poured a hazy yellow color ale with a medium foamy head with very limited retention and limited lacing. Aroma of tart notes with some fruit and more specifically mango notes. Taste is also a mix of mango notes with some tart notes and light funky ester. Body is about average with medium carbonation. Enjoyable fruited sour with good balance overall.

Bottle: Poured a golden color ale with a large white foamy head with OK retention and light lacing. Aroma of rustic malt with some funky dry ester with some vinous notes. Taste is a great mix of rustic malt with some dry Brett notes with some vinous notes with a dry finish. Body is about average with good carbonation. Wonderful saison with Chardonnay notes providing great complexity.
