500mL bottle, pours an opaque cloudy bright purple with a small white head. Aroma is super jammy, with tons of tart jammy boysenberries upfront. Flavour is massively jammy, with lots of tart boysenberries upfront, with some dry woodiness and pithy acidity on the finish. Tart and jammy on the finish, with ample pithiness. Monolithic but a fun jammy tart beer. Lovely.

Bottle thanks to Savada. Pours a dark purple with small off white head that diminishes to nothing. The aroma is strong berry, oak, lemon, brett. Medium body, jammy, berry, low acidity, oak, really enjoyed this.

500 ml bottle. The beer is a dull orangey pink magenta color, fairly light. A bit hazy. Smallish white head, sorta fizzy. Pleasant berry-forward aroma. Both raspberries and cranberries come through well, and it’s a good combo. Mix of sour and sweet fruitiness. Moderately strong lacto note. A touch of buteriness but it’s pretty far in the background and not bad. Tiny bit of cheesy funk. Taste isn’t as tart as expected. Only moderately sour. Berries aren’t quite as sweet as the aroma suggested. There’s a welcome woody berry flavor. Pretty dry finish. A little more butter. Light, fizzy feel. It’s a pretty simple beer, but what’s there is enjoyable. Good fruit flavors.

On tap at Toolbox, pours a cloudy golden with no head. Aroma brings out intense passionfruit upfront, with light barrel notes. Flavour is so incredibly juicy, with intense passionfruit upfront, with sharp but pleasant acidity and light wild and barrel character. Man, that passionfruit is lovely. So deep and complex. Wonderful.

On tap at Toolbox, pours a cloudy orange with a small white head. Aroma brings out earthy notes and light stone fruits. Flavour is much more expressive on the plum, with plenty of tartness and acidity. The plum variant is probably my least favourite of the three, as the plums are rather earthy and fail to impart much depth. Still good.

On tap at Toolbox, pours a hazy dull golden yellow with a small white head. Aroma is quite earthy, with plenty of wild yeast, oak and light saison yeast. Flavour is along the same lines, with saison yeast, light oak and some wild yeast. Nice blend of the yeast and barrels. Works really well.

On tap at Toolbox, pours a hazy amber orange with a small white head. Aroma brings out tart fruits, some oak, and light wild yeast. Flavour is very fruity and medicinal, with strange red fruitiness and wild yeast. Something is a bit off here - not convincing.

On tap at Toolbox, pours a clear pinkish ruby red with a small white head. Aroma brings out light citrus, some fuzzy fruits and a little funk. Flavour is along the same lines, with tart cherries, a little salt and some earthy notes. Nothing special but competently brewed.
