375ml bottle @ Finissons ces pétroles tasting, merci Pierre. Dorée, col blanc. Arôme au nez fruité blanc, avec un rappel assez typique de brett virant vers un léger barriqué vin blanc. Palais est malté fin, stone fruit, levure champennoise et brett? aspect rappelant un Cahrdonnay, sec sur la fin avec un léger adoucissement. Correcte masi rappelant tellement de versions similaires.

On tap at the brewery. Pours a dark, translucent, ruby color, with a small ring of beige bubbles. The nose is intense lemon, grape must, and figs, with some notes of cloves, balsamic vinegar, and molasses. Very sour, cut just a little by some sugary sweetness and a bit of tannic bitterness. Medium body, very acidic, and creamy and smooth. This beer is fantastic! Aggressively sour, but not unpleasant, and it gets smoother and more complex as it warms. Strong vinous nose, but not over done. Very nice!
