Bottle pour at Blind Enthusiasm, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma has musty apple skins, gentle funk, and hay. Flavour has a wonderful barnyard funk character, crisp apple skins, and light citrus. Finishes dry, bitter, and wonderfully funky, with a champagne-like effervescence. Excellent.

On tap at Blind Enthusiasm, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma has a lot of lacto, crackery malt, THP, and a touch of spiciness. Flavour has light THP, some sweet cereal grains, and a touch of lacto. Not very complex and a bit flawed, but reasonably brewed for what it is.

Amber-brown. Thin head. The peat really jumps out on the nose. On the palate, that's a peat bomb. There's some decent body to it, a bit of sweet toffeeish malt. It's interesting. I really like peat, the smoke is serious, and yet I'm thinking the base is solid, but you can't get into it too much because of all the peat. This is unsubtle.

375mL bottle. Pours dark brown with a beige head. Tons of peat smoke and some dark malts on the nose. Flavour has a huge kick of peat smoke up front with a pretty solid malt base supporting it. Delivers peat with the subtelty of a sledgehammer and I'm here for it. I like this.
