Canned (4.5%) at SBWF 19. Hazy golden, mid sized head. Bready nose. Dryish with light body and clean mouthfeel. Bready and grassy. Mid bitter finish. Lacks the softness required for this style,but a fair try.

A lot of barrel. and booze. Way to much random aromas here. Doesn't meld well at all. Pours black with good head and lacing. Tap at Aslin 4th.

Bottle from GBBF 2019 and drunk at home. Hazy gold colour thin collar of white bubbles. A rather tasty brett yeast biscuit malt beer. Some sourness, some wildness. I liked the brett very much. Some sour lemon. Good balance. The biscuit mixes well with the sour lemon and the brett gives structure. I liked it.

Clear golden colour with lasting head. Aroma and flavour have very light malt notes. It's rather weak and watery but a god thirst quencher.
