330mL bottle, pour an opaque peachy golden with a small white head. Aroma is full of bitter floral hop, gloopy stone fruit pith, and earthy farmhouse yeast. Flavour is murky and muddled, with overripe stone fruit pith, bitter floral hops, and some farmhouse yeast. Seems messier and gloopier on the palate than batch 1. It’s okay, but pretty messy and uncoordinated.

750mL bottle, pours a deep dark burgundy with a small off-white head. Aroma has pungent apple core, huge blueberries, and some buried funk. Flavour is full of intense, rotting apple core, wood glue, gentle funk, and a touch of acidic blueberries. This is pretty rough—so much rotting apple core and wood glue. This isn’t up to speed compared to usual Publitasting lambics. Not egregious, but definitely very far from a top-tier lambic.

16.9 oz. bottle, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma is exquisite, with a wonderfully complex bourbon barrels, some burnt sugars, toasted malt, and tons of oak. Flavour is ridiculously complex, with wonderfully complex oak, bourbon barrels, some spicy rye, and toasted malt. Absolutely exquisite oak barrel expression, with a semi-spicy finish. Remarkable.

473mL can, pours a hazy dark orange with a small white head. Aroma has a nice toasted bready malt character, a hint of dry caramel, and light bitterness. Flavour is dry and malty, with dry caramel, toasted bready malt, and gentle bitterness. Nice malt character, seems brewed well to style. Good stuff.

330mL can, pours jet black with a small tan head. Aroma has an intense roasted malt base, molasses, and some low-quality barrels. Flavour is rich and layered, with big bourbon barrels, medium roast, molasses, light sugars, and dark chocolate. Rich, great barrel character, just enough sugars, with a very thick palate. Excellent.
