Bottle. Color: Hazy pale yellow, white head. Aroma: Smoke, peat, Brett, malty. Taste: Combination of Wheat malt, smoke, peat, lightly leathery Brett funk, hints of wood. Light sweetness and moderate tartness. Starting a little more smoky and finishing a little more peaty, both flavors are well distinguishable from each other. Just below medium body, just below average carbonation. Dry-ish finish. Nice mix of flavors, a lot to explore in this relatively low ABV beer.

Bottle. Color: Lightly hazy pale golden, white head. Aroma: Brett, hop. Taste: Light to moderate tart, light hopbitterness, horse blanket Brett funk. Some lemon notes. Just below medium body, average carbonation. Maybe still a bit too young. I most probably will never get the chance to try a longer aged version of this beer, but I would be very curious how it would taste after some years cellaring.
