B1 (2018) shared in 2019. Pours rather unclear blonde. Small white ring of foam. Smell is lemon, aromatic, reminding of a fruity cheese ( i don't mean cheesy though ! ) . lemon,, clear fruityness. Taste is full, sharp, lemon tartness. Very dry, oak, spices. Nice !

Light medium hazy golden. Cobwebs, lemon, lime, hazy and barnyard sour notes. Modestly tart palate, almost flat carbonation. Lots of funk. Dry. Love the nose and the palate is ok but not fantastically balanced. Decent

Thanks Gregg for sharing! Taster showing straw with sparse white foam. The nose shows intense notes of brett. The palate is well carbonated and light bodied. Highly tart with a subtle sweetness and moderately intense brett throughout.

Can from 8 Degrees Plato. Pours a clearish straw yellow color with a quickly dissipating white, soapy head. Strong lemon zest aromas with some funk, mineral and wet hay aromas. A bit of sulphur at first but dissipates as it warms. High carbonation. A bit light and watery but with lots of lemon zest and lime flavors. Light mineral and citrus lingers on the finish. Nice on a hot day.
