Hazy and dullish pale, with a medium head. Buggy nose, light vinous notes. Slightly phenolic. I like the grapey character. The wildness is okay, leaning a bit ropey, though.

From tap at Other Half, New York. Aroma is tart fruits with white grapes, some peach and citrus, oak, some funk, apples, malt, soft honey, hint of vanilla. Flavour is medium acidic sourness with a little sweetness. Body is medium. Deceptive drinkability for a 10%. Really nice.

16oz can from Tavour. Dark brown pour, beige head is short lived. Rich, roasty aroma with notes of chocolate. Taste is roasty, adequate bitterness, dark chocolate. A bit dry at the finish with lingering bitterness. Wonderful!
