Pale, just a touch of berry accent in that colour, with a bit of haze and a thin head. The aroma has a fair bit of raspberry. On the palate, it's got some tartness, fresh raspberry, a bit of acetic. This has a wheaty body, and it tastes fairly fresh. Pretty good.

750ml (thx, Alex M.G.) @ Sales Force. Appearance: hazy golden with some pint notes and a white head. Aroma: a lot of raspberries, some tartness, and rustic notes. Taste: along the same lines, low to moderately tart, nice raspberry character, there is even some very light sweetness from raspberries Overall: good one.

750mL bottle, pours a hazy bright golden orange with a small white head. Aroma has a refined raspberry character that combines very well with the wild yeast, accentuated by some oak tannins. Flavour is wonderfully complex, with lots of wild yeast, fermented out raspberry, plenty of oak, and a touch of acidity from the wine. Remarkably complex and well-integrated. Excellent.

2022. Medium amber, slight haze, with a medium head. Bretty, with some biscuity notes, with a fair bit of wood character. Soft body with low carbonation. Bretty and woody, some apple notes, apricot. The wood tannins and brett bring about dryness, though there is some residual sweetness and light esters.

2022 vintage. 750mL bottle, pours a clear amber with a small white head. Aroma is complex, with lots of funky brett, plenty of oak, and toasted bready malt. Flavour is wonderfully complex, with lots of buggy brett, plenty of oak, rustic notes, and toasted bready malt. Really fantastic yeast expression and the oak really propels this. Excellent.

Bottle at home in Canaan - picked up from HF. Pours clear gold with a creamy, white head. Light-medium sweet flavour with a little pale wood, citrus, booze, sourdough, decent acidity. Medium bodied with fine, massaging carbonation. Quenching finish, warming, more sourdough, citrus fruits, a little pale woody dryness. Very tasty beer.
