Bottled @ jbrus. Hazy orange color, short head, some lacing. Aroma and taste remind me of Orval. Nicely bitter, obvious dry hopped taste with some Brett sourness. I quite like it.

Fantastic brew! I opened this beer last week for the third time and have cravings all the time. (Maybe that’s the alcoholism) Light in color, well balanced, banana, and other fruits are present. Tommie really shines thru this one.

Bottled @ Jbrus’. Aroma has hops, yeast, barnyard and some apple in it. Hazy, orange coloured beer with an off-white head. The taste is yeasty, a bit sharp, citric. Wasn’t too impressed.

Bottle, sampled March ’09. Light gold, fluffy white head. Nose is honey malt, some yeast, a little grapey funk. Flavor is a bit "old" for lack of a better description. Slightly raisiny malt, yeast, nice enough bitterness. Flavor is flat & one dimensional overall though.

Bottle@Home. Brett aroma, leather and barnyard. Yellow colour, off-white head, good lace. Sweet, leather, spiced, hint of caramel. Unusual combination of starting sweetness and finishing leather.

Tasting session at jbrus. Bottled. Hazy golden coloured, big white head. Leathery nose, some citrus. Rather thick mouthfeel, brett, sweetness, more bitter towards the finish. Lasting bitter finish. Very interesting flavour, unusual but good.
