On tap at Threefold, pours a hazy golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma has a lot of foeder dominating, with spicy saison yeast and a light floral character. Flavour is very dry, with lots of the foeder stealing the show, accentuating the nice, lightly spicy yeast profile. Simple, dry and drinkable. Good.

473 ml can. Pours a dark brown with full head.Initial aromas include a ton of rosemary, sweat and juniper followed by meaty gin and toasted malts. Flavors are a little bit more balanced and follow same, but with a good dose of plastic, soap and oak. Seems a bit weird and off balance to me. Maybe a bad can? Certainly not in line with the tap reviews…

Light brown, no head. Ok, so big plastic phenols on this, I mean that is the dominant character. Some sweetness up front, then a boozy barrel character. I get bubblegum, but not a whole lot else. So this is brandy barrels? So there's a bit of that, maybe, but so much bubblegum.

Slight haze. Bright brett aroma. Thin head. Slight tartness, the grapes are bright. Good balance. Solid fruit, good body. Maybe a touch sharp in the finish.

Dark brown. Thick head. Expressive aroma of pine, rosemary, sage, chocolate. Basically the gin barrel takes the black IPA concept into overdrive. It’s kind of the same on the palate - herbaceous and piney, bitter, grapefruit. All these really good things all at once. A touch yeasty, with a chocolate and toasted malt sweetness.

Poured from 330mL bottle. Murky dark brown with no head. Fairly spiced, cinnamon, nutmeg, touch of sassafras, a bit molasses-y, bitters barrel forward, could use a touch more body. Decent.

Bottle pour from 3Fold. Medium purple red with no head. Nice balaton cherry character, nice buggy complexity. Quite nice. Aging in the bottle for a while probably softened the acidity.

12oz @ Ryan's (thx for the beer!).
Aroma: sweet, bold, dark fruits, caramel.
Taste: along the same lines.
Overall: it has a nice complexity and balance between caramel, dark fruits, and some hoppy bitterness. Good one 👍
