330ml bottle, thanks to Mike for this! Misty golden amber appearance, thin white head that starts to disperse. Not sure what to make of this tbh.. I feel perhaps a fermentation issue at play. Does not feel like a biere de garde, or Vienna malt-led.. doesn't look the part, Belgian yeast used, but that encompasses a wide range, not especially detectable. Not feeling it.

Managed to.press a random.butt9n on route from kitchen to.sofa and lose.my rating. A sour Biere de Garde. Possibly not a surprise with Wilderness. I then spotted the fact that they label it as a Vienne Biere de Garde which explains things... aroma and flavour are both sour - citrus, berries, vinous, sherbert, nettles - with underlying caramel. Amber with a frothy foamy white head. Light-medium bodied. Slick to oily..Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry astringent finish. Rustic, I guess. And the name made me want to listen to Husker Du.... but now moved onto Spanish Love Songs.

Small, disappearing white head over faintly veiled, pale yellow-golden beer. Aromatic fruity nose, bit gassy. With some searching, pear becomes obvious. Solvent, and a bit of Bretts? Pear is even more obvious in the flavour, almost perry-like. Make that: perry full stop. Very dry finish, again signs of wild yeast. Light, very refreshing, feels better carbonated than it looks. Ultra dry in the end. Interesting - in the good sense of the word. Given blind, I'd classified it as perry, not as beer.
