750mL bottle, pours a cloudy bright dark red with a small pink head. Aroma is very buggy, with lots of red wine grape must, tart cherry skins, light barnyard funk, and some oak. Flavour is nicely integrated, with lots of buggy barnyard funk, red wine grape must, and tart cherry skins. Nicely buggy, with a good interplay between the grapes and cherries. Complex and well-designed. Excellent.

(750ml bottle from 4th and 7, Toronto) Pours clear pale red with a small fizzy pink-to-white head and no lace. Aroma is bright fresh raspberry and cherry, red wine grapes for sure providing both the red fruit and obvious vinousness, deeper Cab Franc skin maceration tones with warmth, herbal peppery accents, cedar, soft woody barrel tones, delicate 'dry' leathery Brett funk. Flavour is dry and lightly tart but not much beyond a light red wine in acidity, cherries take the lead over raspberries early in the sip though the latter appear a bit more towards the finish, nice smooth tannic grape skins, acidity as much grapey as overtly lactic, drying astringent herbs, lightly aromatic cedar tones, lightly peppery, funk is quite restrained but present, oak in the finish and aftertaste alongside soft minerality. Light-bodied with active filling carbonation. Very wine-like as expected, like a nice light-bodied Gamay in some ways but with a bit more heft than a Gamay beer might be with the Cab Franc vibes. Lovely.

375mL bottle, pours a hazy pale golden blonde with a tiny white head. Aroma is complex, with lots of white wine skins, some ice wine grape skins, and bugginess. Flavour is along the same lines, with Riesling grape skins, ice wine character, lots of bugs and gentle funk. Really nice expression from the grape skins and mixed well with the farmhouse funk. Buggy and vinous finish. Excellent.

375mL bottle, pours a fairly clear pale golden, with a tiny, rapidly-diminishing white head. Aroma brings out lots of sparkling white wine, crisp white berry skins, and a touch of champagne-like effervescence. Flavour is along the same lines, with crisp, tart berry skins, white wine, and a touch of champagne-like funk. Gently tart, lightly acidic, with a pleasant funk. Not the most complex Burdock beer, but this is great.

375ml bottle. Pours a cloudy straw colour with a thin, fizzy, short lived, white head that fully dissipates. Sour aroma of pale malt, funky Brett, lemon, oak and floral hops. Sweet fruity flavour of pale malt, lemon, orange, peach, oak, light Brett and floral hops in a dry, sour, acidic finish. Light to medium body with a watery texture and soft carbonation. Enjoyable and well made.

I apologize for drinking this on a Wednesday, but still a school night, right? Very pale yellow colour, hazy, with a medium but really weak head. Aroma of saison yeast, light pale malt notes, and a little vinousness. So, as promised. Light body, and light pale malt. Herbaceous hop, slightly estery yeast with a vinous note in the finish. Like Burdock mini yum.

Can. Quite pale. Pleasant hop aromatics are berryish and peachy. It's got pretty good body for this size, and a little bit of residual sugar for body. Moderate bitterness, and some citrusy hop character. Good example of this, more balanced than most.

375ml (thx, Peter K.!) @ home. Appearance: hazy golden with a white head. Aroma: rustic and barrel notes with some light manure character on the background. Taste: along the same lines, low acidity, lemony, very simple taste with a good malty backbone. Overall: a table beer with a good body.
