Bottleshare at CBJ. Thanks to Colin. Just a light haze on this pale gold beer, thin white head. Airy and pretty dry palate, decent fine carbonation. Thin dry malts, aged tasting. Dried fruits. Mild tart fruits. Dry finish. Hard work.

Bottle at Rassia tasting. Clear golden with white head. Citrus forward with some tartness, oak, grass. Funky, refreshing. Way better than I anticipated.

Bottle. Just unclear amber with white head that's soon less than a coat but never quite disappears. Fruity, woody and Bretty aroma with berries and old lemons, some stone fruit. Quite tart but mellow with gentle stone fruit and a little tropical sweetness as well as oak fattening things out a bit. No bitterness, only a little Bretty zing. Very nice.
Medium high acidity but packing tons of apricot flavor.
