Review based on the BJCP2015 guidelines (style 28B / 25B, adapted). Bottle 37.5 cl - Batch unknown (BBF unknown). AROMA: medium-low sour aroma with acidic and slight horsy notes. faint sweet malt background. APPEARANCE: deep gold color and clear. medium-low white head with average retention. TASTE: similar to the aroma with medium to medium-low sour notes, slight barnyard with very faint malt background. low bitterness and dry finish. PALATE: low body with low carbonation. OVERALL: a farmhouse with mixed culture fermentation, rendering it a bland final beer.

Draft at Craft Brewed. Pours a clearish copper color with a small head that dissipates. Light woody aroma with muscat and lemon notes. Tart, white wine vinegar, pear and more muscat skin. Dry, white wine-like finish. Not super complex, but enjoyable.

Draught at Publick House, 6/19/18.
Hazy, soft yellow-lemon with blonde brass hues throughout. White head is small and dense, sitting well at cover.
Very soft, mild Brett mixes with creamy, nutty wheat and/or other cereal-like grain notes. Not all that tart with light apple and pear esters. Not even all that phenolic/peppery with mostly just light, fruity Brett and a touch of deep horsey funk.
In the mouth it's similar, with a bit more Brett expression showing lime, horse, band aid and soft, blanding, nutty wheat on the finish to continue with the gentle/mild trend. Slight bitterness from herbal hops throughout is pleasant and the beer is clean, mild and shows a supple, light malt texture and low but engaging carbonation with no alcohol or flaw.

Bottle - turbid gold, no head - I bought this because I found it on sale and have been curious about it, since I love smoked beers - it doesn't really deliver on the promise of it's packaging, perhaps because the sourness and buggy character overwhelm everything - I mean, I can tell there's smoke, but it seems more like a subtle phenol - this is mostly one-dimensional sourness and some savoriness - disappointing, as I've been impressed with some of TRVE's products as of late.
