Bottleshare at Chez Frog. Thanks to Fergus for the bottle. Just a light haze on this gold beer, good bubbly pale cream colour head. Airy palate, semi dry, good fine minerally carbonation. A pleasant light funk here, nicely offset by some barrell induced vanilla. Very mild cognac soaked ripe fruits on the back end. Light and semi dry finish. Nice sour.
