750mL bottle, pours a hazy golden with a medium white head. Aroma has plenty of woodiness, wild yeast, oak, and wet wood. Flavour has plenty of graininess, lots of oak, some wood, and wild yeast. Woody, buggy, and grainy. It’s not one of their best yeast expressions but still pretty well-constructed.

Bottle at share. Foggy orange golden with a nice bubbly head. Aroma is the normal de Garde funk, tea. Taste is tea, earthy, woody and more of the DG funk. Dries out towards the end.

Very carbonated tart tons of berry fruit. Lively the fruit character hasn’t faded at all. Super excellent balance with fruit and touch of oak.

750mL bottled Nov, 2022, drunk May 9, 2025.
Clear, bright peach-brass-honey. Well-carbonated, off-white head is large, slowly fading to ring.
Dainty peach with a bit of leathery depth, floral fruit and restrained acid. Brett and very mild, well-aged lacto with no acetic. Lively oak, but low tannin. All comes together very homogeneously.
Light and fruity with wonderfully-extracted/expressed peach and tight, ebullient carbonation. Lots of oak flavor, but almost no tannin and low butter, even. Juicy peach and excellent Brett with very low acid - so low I probably wouldn't guess this was De Garde blind! But it's dainty, lovely, and most importantly, supremely drinkable.
