Hazy amber - fine, sticky lace - nose is potent lime, hibiscus, camomile - tangy to the point of sourness - some sweet Munich malt hiding underneath - soft carbonation in the mouth - flavor is also very citric - a lot of lime and acidic herbal/wildflower character - definitely overdone in this respect - however, this subdues the malt profile, which is actually a good thing, since the Belgian resistance was overcome by it - the hops add additional tropical fruit character, making the overpowering citrus even stronger - slightly spicy finish - needs more balance, but decent.

750ml capped bottle poured into a sniffer glass. Thick muted golden color, cannot see through it and the small head sticks around. Aroma is herbal rich, fresh, earthy, grassy, dry, and a sweet peppermintesque character, which is cool. Flavor losses that light sweetness and is full of easy herbal character. The carbonation is lightly felt on tip of the tongue. All fades quickly with a dryness left over. I could drink this often. Thanks Brandon.

Tap at Funkwerks - nose of toasty Munich malts - Have had the belgian resistance and commented that it tastes like an ofest with Belgian yeast - not sure of the yeast here, but it imparts no character - this tastes like nothing but Munich and Vienna malts - not that this is a bad thing, but it makes for a rather characterless, forgettable beer.

Hazy golden - soapy lace - nose of dried herbs, wildflower, apricot, lightly peppery phenols - no Brett in the nose - flavor is tangy, with only light apricot - lavender, wheat - light notes of white wine - gets more dry and crisp through the middle - flinty - only a hint of earthiness - very mildly developed brett in the finish in thr form of mellow horseblanket - needs some time for the Brett to develop, but fairly refreshing and tasty even now.

Muddy orange-blond color; medium sized but frothy head. The aroma is yeasty, somehow spicy, with fruity traces but also tones of vegetables. The dry mouthfeel is a good trait; the malt flavor is dry and spicy, with a quite high yeast presence and light citrusy fruits; correct bitterness. Quite good.
