Bottle thanks to bu11zeye. Pours with a hazed golden body and a small white head. Aroma of apricots, must, candi sugar, dried fruits, and a slight grassy resin. Taste is tart with dried fruits, a metallic note, apricot, white grape, and a slight astringency. Very high acidity. Fizzy and acidic mouthfeel.

FRO throwdown: Awesome one from beerlando. Dark amber. Sour and barnyard funk come through in the the heavily honeyed meady nose. Heat comes in at the finish from alcohol, but its not bad. Fully sweet like a mead but balanced by a bretty tartness, what a cool combo this one is.

CaptainCougar supplied 750ml bottle, thanks! Thick brown-orange color. Lacy head. Thick yeasty flavor. Quite a nice beer with lots of subtle Belgian-style nuances. Sweet but balanced by the Brett, which works itself into the equation superbly, not standing out and dominating like it can. Not unlike a hoppy Belgian Christmas Ale. Great beer.

Bottle thanks to bu11zeye. Interesting take on an abbey single. Pours with a huge, fluffy white head and a clear golden body. Great lacing. Aroma is intense with honey, fried fruits, sticky jam, apricots, grass and tangerine. Taste is fruity with tangerine, apricot, grapefruit and some light tropical nuts. Dry mouthfeel with lively carbonation. My favorite take on a Single/Singel so far.
