Crowler from the brewpub. Pours brown orange. Caramel, booze, orange, lemon, perfumed, cherry, phenolic, almond, bit of a strawberry note. Good body. Tastes like a cleaner classic French version of the style with a little extra citrus touch to me. Nice.

Crowler. Tropical fruit, orange, passion fruit, plus a brett nose that probably wasn't intended. Hazy orange. Brett is taking over here, but it blends pretty nicely with the tropical hops and since there was little sugar to begin with, it is only mild. Fun beer. Lots of flavor for so light abv.

Tap at the brewpub. Hazy golden with off white head. Strong mango, some passionfruit, guava, papaya, creamy cooked grains, almost buckwheat, light grassy and some weird herbs. Medium sweet and light bitter. Bit over medium bodied with slight creamy feel. This has some lovely fruity hops, but also a little weird notes. Overall not bad.
