Can, pours a hazy dark amber with a small beige head. Aroma has a nice spicy rye character, fermented out cherries, and some wild yeast. Flavour is bone dry, with totally fermented out cherries, spicy rye, some wild yeast, and earthiness. Very dry, spicy and only lightly fruity. Too dry and not enough depth, but nothing wrong here. Pleasant.

Poured from the tap @ Iron Road. Cloudy gold with small white head. Fucking odd. A bit chalky, some cheap botanical gin, feint citrus hops. Good on them for trying some wacky outside the box stuff, but it's just a mess.

Pale colour. It's yeasty, and then gets vinous. Light body. The vinous character is the standout, I don't think I'm getting sumac and strawberry maybe a tiny bit.

On tap at Farmhouse Fest 2023, pours a hazy dark copper with a small white head. Aroma brings out pungent strawberry, light vinous notes and a touch of bugs. Flavour is full of tart, dry strawberries, light wild bugs, and a hint of vinous notes. Nice strawberry notes but not much complexity. Decent.

On tap at Farmhouse Fest 2023, pours a clear pale golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out gentle bugginess and muddled earthiness. Flavour is muddled, with earthy bugginess and gentle bready malt. Not very complex or integrated but pleasant enough. Meh.

On tap at Farmhouse Fest 2023, pours a hazy dark orange with a tiny white head. Aroma brings out apple core, some rotting notes, and wild yeast. Flavour is confused, with apple core, wild yeast, and earthiness. Totally confused and muddled. Incompetent mess of a beer.

A taster shared with Josh, Matt, Phill, and Ryan during FHF with priceless Rachel's (yup, again!) help in organizing all the mess with glasses. Appearance: a bit hazy copper. Aroma: berries, some nice herbs. Taste: same. Overall: ok.

Dark red-brown with lots of head. Lots of fruitiness, dates, plums, a bit of demerara sugar. Good complexity here. The alcohol splashes in, the body is full, this is good shit.

Amber with slight haze. Medium head. Some butter on this one, full malts, light fruit. But also butter.

Amber colour, just a slight haze. Thin head. Vinous, estery aroma. Slight tartness, nice vinous accent, well balanced with mellow biscuity malts.
