Nice Brett and plums, smooth. Moderately tart with a lot of funk and nice fruity character. Solid.

On tap at Theodore, pours a clear pale golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma is rather muted on the fruit, with light metallic notes, wild bugs, and tart citrus. Flavour is quite bitter, with plenty of bitter orange peel, intense citrusy passionfruit, and a hint of guava. Not a huge funk character, but the wild yeast does show itself. Not remotely convincing as a lambic, but as an oddball mixed ferm ale, this is pretty good.

On tap at Bottlecraft - Little Italy, pours a clear copper yellow with a medium white head. Aroma has plenty of black pepper, plenty of funk and a little leather — not passable as an authentic gueuze though. Flavour is much the same, with dry leather, black pepper, some funk, and a hint of tart citrus. Complex and well-blended. Again, not lambic-like but it does strike some notes in common and it's an excellent blended wild ale.

Sample (thanks fonefan!). Amber colour, small white head. Aroma is muscat, some floral, tart wooden and mild citrusy tones. Flavour is muscat, a bit vineous, tart fruits, wood and some mild herbal tones. Very nice dry palate to it. Makes you long for another sip.
