Feb 2, 2008 Sample from bomber shared by bethmatt0421 @ Cincy gathering. Pours a hazy pale golden color with a good sized white head that collapses to a thin crown. The aroma is sweet fruits accompanied with a little tartness. The Brett is mild at best. Flavors include fruits that are moderately sweet, light malt, and a strong yeasty component. Medium bodied. I have a bottle that I am aging to see if it develops further.

Feb 1, 2008 Rating from 2/1/08. When I find my other notes on this one (if I find them), I’ll revise this rating. Pours gold with a white head. Smells of straw, dry malt, some tartness. Taste is crisp and dry with lots of peppery splashes and a bitter finish. This seems to have lost much of its malt character.

Feb 1, 2008 Lightly sweet aroma. Smells faintly of herbs, spices, burnt wood, and coriander. Poured golden-yellow in color with a large, fluffy, white head that lasted throughout. Hazy. Lightly sparkling. Flavor is lightly sweet and lightly bitter. Tastes of yeast, funk, bitter hops, flax seed oil, lemon, chardonnay, and herbs. Light to medium body. Thin, dryish texture. Average carbonation. Dry bitter-sweet finish.

Feb 1, 2008 clove ester explosion in the aroma stays along for a while before the funk is unveiled. Old person’s home/musty action deep underneath starts coming on a bit stronger. Flavor- enjoyed it quite a bit. perfume/cologne-like floral flavors come on with a sharpness that I was not expecting. Funk comes on like milk that is about three days past its expiration date. A unique brew that will not be for everyone, but I liked it quite a bit.

Feb 1, 2008 Bottle dated 6/07, consumed 2/08. Hazy golden body, medium off-white head, nose of banana, citrus, clove, honey and funk. Too much sharp funk in the mouth, too sweet, perfumy character, fruits. Does not hide alcohol well, astringent finish. Don’t like this one.

Feb 1, 2008 On tap @ the new Liar’s club in Alpine. A bright cloudy yellow pour with a big, rocky head. Nose was sweet and tangy. citrus, spice and banana dominated the aromas. A very drinkable Saison.

Feb 1, 2008 Hazy gold. Some sexy lace. Orchard fruit: white grape, salted plum. Touch of ginseng. Tastes like tobacco water and evaporates quickly. Thin mouthfeel.

Feb 1, 2008 Dull pale, cloudy. The aroma is somewhat vague, dull yeastiness with accents that are likely brett but could be mistaken for phenols. The body is thin, and the alcohol is very apparent. There’s some fruitiness, lots of yeast (to the point of astringency)...and the finish is both muddled and dry. I’m going to cellar my other bottle cause this isn’t really all that shit hot right now....it goes nowhere and does nothing.
