750mL Bottle. Noses in peppery flowers, curt brettanomyces and lucious papaya flesh. Fruity and inviting with a pinch of grass for support. Pours a heavily hazed amber-gold, with a well-sustained lacy maplewood-tinted head. Flavor is rather rich and developing. Sweet blasts of tropical fruits meld with some heavier-handed grain and nuts. A slight bit chewy. At the finish, wildness and yeast products provide a segue to some crisp hoppiness that meets the exotic fruit palor of this beer. Delicious and refreshing, if mild and meek. Thanks Sean!

Aug 17, 2008 Bottled. Medium brown puir, tan head. Spciy, floral nose. Falvor was yeasty, malty, hint of barnyard. Hoppy finish. Didn’t seem much like a bitter to me, but I enjoyed it.

Aug 16, 2008 Bottle.
Cloudy orange coloured with a huge and lacing off white head.
Aroma of wood and hops with acidic notes and notes of wine and dish washer.
Flavour of fruits, wood and wine with notes of brett.
Dry hppy and woody finish.
Barrel aged bitter is a strange combination, but it tastes good.

Aug 12, 2008 I was kind of disappointed with this beer. Pours a hazy amber with a thick off white head. Sour aroma, not as much hops as I was expecting. Flavor was a little thin, besides the mild sour I didn’t get enough out of this beer. I really didn’t enjoy it that much, and it isn’t exactly a cheap bottle.
