Bottle thanks to Clownisseur! Pours hazy orange, medium beige head, dissipates fairly quickly, nice lacing. Aroma is peach for sure, hints of oak, brett funk, basement mildew, hints of pine. Flavor is peach and Brett, quite lighlty tart actually with a medium funk, but clean Brett notes, basement and horseblanket, stonefruit, oak tannins, quite a lot of oak actually, but not a lot of acetic tannin. Medium body. Pretty solid beer.
