Draught at the brewpub. Clear pale amber. Light acidic barnyrad aroma. Dryish with fairly clean mouthfeel. Citric and lively with some grassy hops. Has some similarities to good, dry cider. Not as complex as for instance Supplication, but still very good.

Draught, at the brewpub
Hazy light amber colour. Soapy, perfumey hop character with strawlike pale malts adding to the mix. Fresh, fruity character with light dusty yeast notes, hints of pear and a good amount of brett. Great beer - takes the effort of a master and utilizes it in a beer for the proletariat without either dumbing it down nor pricing it up. Kick ass.

On tap. Poured a medium golden / amber color with an averaged sized white head. Aromas of brett, citrus (lemons), tart berries, leather and all around funky. Tastes of fruits, lemons, grapes and a lighter funkiness. Light tart finish. Thinner body.

Sampled from growler: Pours a slightly hazy copper orange color with a thick, frothy, clumpy-lacing white head. Tart, sour, funky, and mildly citric aroma has a touch of dry earthy hops. Body starts with some sweet earthy maltiness, a touch of orange peel and a nicely balanced funky tartness. Smooth flavorful finish. Another winner from Russian River.

Tap: Gold, nice white head and lacing. Nose of bright grass, accentuated pale malt, nice hops, clean flavor. Light sweetness to highly the bitterness. Finishes grassy, citric. Good, but I was looking for a bit more of the brett showing through.

Pours cloudy orangish/dark straw with 2-finger white head. Aroma of extreme bready malt and funky hopcitrus, with some spicy floral notes and black pepper. The taste is bready malty and fruity up front, with mid-palate hopcitric, melon and apricot notes. Complex palate, and nicely balanced.
