Bottle thanks to Reynolds314. Shared at a tasting. I had honestly totally forgotten where this came from and I was not expecting much. Pours crystal clear pale golden, medium white head, dissipates fairly slowly, good lacing. Aroma is citrus, tropical fruit, mineral water, Brett. Flavor is dry, light tart, light clean Bretty funk, juicy lemony grapefruit and passionfruit. Light body. Clean and a really enjoyable beer. Winner.

Bottle shared by Nelson on 9/16/16.
Lightly hazy, drab brass-golden with a small-to-medium-sized, beige-tinted, white head showing moderate to moderately low retention.
Oak and apricots collide quite powerfully in the nose, producing both toastiness and fruit-driven acidity. Light to moderate acetic character, as well as plentiful lactic acid sustain the acidity and while it smells good, it definitely smells like a stomach ache. Fruits are authentic and quite acidic, with zero sweetness left. The oak tannin and light caramel character comprise the backbone, which seems to not-quite balalnce the acidity, though it doesn’t come off astringent.
Intensely sour in the mouth, with enamel-stripping, puckering sourness augmented by the apricot acidity. Lactic and moderate acetic acid linger, with light to moderate oak character. Soft-to-oily texture with engaging, low carbonation. Reminds me quite a bit of De Garde, which may be off-putting to some, but once the palate acclimates to the sourness, I find it really enjoyable.
