Had this at the Alibi back in July. Slight haze, light amber, medium head. Bit of brett on the nose, though with some biscuity malts. Tart on the palate, with raspberry notes, still a fair amount of sweet malts. Ok, the brett's kicked in but seems like the base beer wasn't great - was probably too sweet- and the end product is a bit messy as a result.

2017-09-07, bottle at Oakes' Manor, 7-4-7-3-15=36
Very nice aroma, fruity, a bit funky; funky and astringent flavor; very good.
2017-07-10, draught at Alibi Room, Vancouver, 7-4-7-3-15=36
Hazy golden color. It's the usual Moon Kettle Sour, with a nice lactic and citric character (more lactic aroma, more citric flavor), the hopping is zesty, but the finish is lightly vegetable.
Very good, refreshing.

2017, at FHF. Hazy, thin head. Tart, has a mellow tree fruit and berry character. This isnβt bad, no real high notes but a nice overall character.

Cloudy golden color, creamy head. The Brett gives a mild funky aroma and stronger funky flavor, as well as some astringency in the final; lightly fruity, pale malts, a bit biscuity, but the final is a bit disturbing, also some vegetable bitterness; chaotic. Not too bad.

Dark brown with no head. Vinous aroma, balsamic vinegar. Lean body, but with nice malt depth; evident Bourbon, but what makes it is the light sourness. Pleasant.

On tap at St. Augustine's, pours a hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out a fair amount of musty brett, along with citrus hops. Flavour brings out a good incorporation of bretty funk, followed by resinous hops and dry biscuity malt to back. One of the better brett IPAs out there. Good balance of hops and brett. Very good.

Hazy yellow with a thin head. Nose has touch of brett and some fruity hop. Bitter, lightly bretty though Iβm getting some underlying phenols - was brett the plan b to an ipa that fermented a bit too warm? Messy but not bad.
