Got in a BIF from jdell15. 22 ounce bottle into tulip glass, no bottle dating. Pours fairly hazy pale golden/straw color with a 1-2 finger fairy dense and fluffy white head with good retention, that reduces to a thin spotty lace cap that lingers. Light spotty lacing clings around the glass, with a moderate amount of streaming carbonation retaining the lace. Aromas of big lightly tart/sour lemon, lime, peach, pear, pineapple, honeydew melon, raspberry, strawberry, red/green apple, white wine, hay, straw, grass, oak, wheat, and cracker; with light notes of leathery/musty funk, vanilla, white vinegar, and yeast/oak earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of fruity/funky/light acidic yeast, oak barrels, and light-moderate pale malt notes; with great strength. Taste of big lightly tart/sour lemon, lime, peach, pear, pineapple, honeydew melon, raspberry, strawberry, red/green apple, white wine, hay, straw, grass, oak, wheat, and cracker; with light notes of leathery/musty funk, vanilla, white vinegar, and yeast/oak earthiness. Light fruity/lactic tart/sourness and yeast/oak spiciness on the finish. Lingering notes of tart lemon, lime, peach, pear, pineapple, honeydew melon, raspberry, strawberry, red/green apple, white wine, hay, straw, grass, oak, wheat, cracker, light funk/vinegar, and yeast/oak earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Great complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/funky/light acidic yeast, oak barrels, and light-moderate pale malt flavors; with a great malt/tartness/spiciness balance, and zero puckering flavors after the finish. Lightly increasing dryness from tart/spiciness. Medium-high carbonation and light-medium body; with a very smooth, and fairly grainy/acidic/tannic balanced mouthfeel that is great. Fairly crisp/clean finishing. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 6%. Overall this is an excellent wild ale. All around great complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/funky/light acidic yeast, oak barrels, and light-moderate pale malt flavors; very smooth, crisp, clean, and refreshing to drink with the mildly lactic/tannic/drying finish. Not a ton of Lacto, but decent; was hoping for more. The Brett complexity is awesome, and really spot on in complexity. Great oak presence and balancing pils/wheat malts. A very enjoyable offering.

Rachel brought this one back from a trip. +++ Sampled from a 12 oz can this beer poured a bright golden color with lots of chunks and floaters and an enormous soapy yellow-white head that lingered and left good lacing. He aroma was musky and a bit funky with notes of bubblegum, yeast and herbal hops. The flavor was bitter, dryish and astringent with yeast, strong mustiness and earthy and floral hops. Long finish. Medium body. Not good

Can from Craft Brewed. Pours a tea-like copper with a finger of foam. Roasted grain and caramel. Bitter on the palate, more roasted toffee. Grassy hops. Some pils-like malts in there. Not bad, but missing something...maybe some of that malty sweetness. --- Beer merged from original tick of Oktoberfest: Gemütlichkeit on 02 Sep 2017 at 21:43 - Score: 6. Original review text: Roasted grain and caramel. Bitter on the palate, more roasted toffee. Grassy hops. Some pils-like malts in there.
