Bottle. A lightly hazy golden colored beer with a small, dense, off-white head. Rather funky aroma, with orange, lemon, leather and a peppery hint. Some pale malt notes. It’s full-bodied, quite effervescent and dry, with lots of funky flavors. Lemon, leather, some barnyard and even more fruityness in the flavor. Some pale malts. Lasting finish. A nice and refreshing beer indeed, tasteful too, although not the most complex beer I’ve had. 161105

Dégustée à température de 5,9°C à 10,3°C. Étiquette adorable. Corps doré clair, opaque avec plein de levures, couronné par la mousse la plus extraordinaire que j’aie encore jamais vue : très effervescente sans être capricieuse ou farceuse, blanche, comme du nid d’abeille ou du cristal soufflé en alvéoles. Côté arômes, c’est très frais : agrumes légers, fruits, bretts très évidentes, ananas, fruits jaunes, malts légers, fleurs - complexe. En bouche, un petit côté rustique mais beaucoup d’élégance; une amertume fine et assez présente; le côté malté se développe progressivement. C’est très, très bon. Très agréable en mangeant un plat simple de bons légumes cuisinés. À la fois complexe et très facile à apprécier.
500ml bottle. Slight hazy golden. White head. Lots of lemon and floral action. Nimble and light bodied. Bit peppery, spicy. Decent but lacking a certain spark.
Not bad but not really good at the same time. Too high carbonation kills it.

Bottle. Cotteridge. Drinking this 15 months after bottling. Light gold. Soft haze. Dense, rocky, lasting, bright white head. Nose has clean, lemony brett. Some white pepper. Hint of white grape and peach. Taste is soft, bready, yeasty sweet. Some dryness. Foamy mouthfeel. Bready, sweet finish, with a bretty tang on the close. Smells and looks good, but tails off a little thereafter.

Bottle from the brewery. Aged 2 years. Pours almost clear bright gold with a thick, bubbly off white head. Taste like dry herbs, dry citrus hops, grapefruit, peaches, dry white wine, and champagne yeast. Light body and low/medium carbonation. Smell like herbs, dry citrus hops, dry white wine, and champagne.
2 yr old bottle from brewery. Pours mostly clear gold with a thick pillow of off-white head. Aroma is floral notes, citrus esters, faint spice and funk, straw, and wheat. Flavor is earthy funk, dry rustic malt profile, light grassy and citrus bitterness, and faint spice. Medium body.
Hazed gold rocky permanent head. Pineapple candy, tutti-frutti brett, salt, lemon oil / lemon zest aroma impression. Medium bodied, off-dry to dry, lightly bitter with some sugar cookie maltiness. It’s vibrant, zesty, floral and honey-ish to begin, but turns more basic, farm-y, chalky as it opens, and becomes more lactic.
Bottle. Head is initially large, frothy, white, mostly lasting. Body is hazy medium yellow. Aroma is lightly malty (toasted grain), lightly hoppy (flowers), lightly yeasty (cobwebs), with light notes of pineapple, pepper, concrete. Flavor is lightly to moderately sweet, moderately to heavily acidic, lightly bitter. Finish is lightly sweet, moderately to heavily acidic, moderately bitter. Medium body, watery texture, lively carbonation, lightly to moderately alcoholic.
First pour aroma starts out pretty nice with the pineapple-ish note but devolves into something less enticing and duller after not much time at all. Nice flavor balance and mouthfeel though, and the head is large and long-lasting. Quite solid but lacking 4+ brilliance.
50cl bottle via Beer Gonzo. It pours a hazed pale golden color with a large white head. Aroma is tart funky tangy with loads of Breet, yeast, citrus peel, melon, apricots. Taste is also rich in pissy hops, Breet yeast, horse blanket, musty dusty notes and apricots. Medium bodied with silky texture and good carbonation. Overall, very nice
