750mL bottle, pours a hazy blonde with a small white head. Aroma is moderately acidic, with low-level funk, elderflower, and crisp apple skins. Flavour is full of apple core, crisp apple skins, and gentle floral notes. The plums are there, but very buried. Not much funk or complexity, but there are some nice elements here. Good.

Poured from 750mL bottle. Slightly hazy pale blonde with no head (chunks in the bottom of the bottle). Pear with a touch of funk. Just okay.

750mL bottle, pours a clear blonde with a ton of sediment and a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of wild yeast, barnyard funk, and crisp pear skins. Flavour is sharp, with plenty of crisp pear skins, moderate-to-high acidity, and barnyard funk. Crisp, moderately acidic, and decently funky, but not all that complex. A little harsh and underwhelming in the complexity department compared to some other Revels. Still, good.

Bottle. Hazy rosé color with white head. Aroma is lemon basil, funky apple, wood, leather. Taste is apples, kombucha funk, basil again. Mineraly mouthfeel, sparkly. Nice, but not amazing.

750mL bottle, pours a cloudy blonde with a rapidly-diminishing white head. Aroma brings out lots of chardonnay skins, barnyard wild yeast, and oak. Flavour is quite tart, with lots of tart apple skins, some chardonnay, wild yeast, and a little oak. Tart, wild, funky, and oaky. Not as good as their prior collab, but this is well-made.

(750ml 2020 bottle from the cidery webshop, 6.3%) Pours clear medium orange with basically no head. Aroma of lemon and orange peels, orange pulp, soft peachy pit fruit sweetness, tang of citrus acidity, white grape skins, soft hay-like Brett, tea-like tannins. Flavour is lightly acidic with clear notes of orange pulp backed up by soft lemon and peach, moderate grape skin tannins, minerality, light funky hay, drying finish with dusty grippy tannins and citrus peels in to the aftertaste. Light to medium-bodied, average-plus carbonation. A very fun piquette, I know I left this bottle to rest longer than I should have but it's still drinking quite well; like a skin contact Riesling meets iced tea.

Tasting at Phill's, bottle
Hazy red colour, pale-ish. The aroma is mildly funky and with strawberries, lightly vinous. Semi-dry, with fruit character (strawberries, raspberries), getting drier in the finish, hints of funk, a bit sulfuric.
It's ok.

Blond colour, somehow dull, clean. The aroma is a bit farty, the flavour is off-dry, mouthfeel is soft, very light apples/cider character, light acidity. It's simple, with no flaws, but really lacking of depth and complexity on the global scale.
