| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 20, 2009 750 mL bottle. Pours clear dark copper with a fizzy, off-white head, mostly lasting with good lacing. Aroma is yeast dominant with a balanced malt and hop backbone. Yeast is definitely wild, farmhouse, horse blanket, medicinal, and plastic. Malt is light (biscuit) with some earthy and floral hops. The aroma finishes with a slight sourness. Very floral. Flavor is sour and funky yeast, less sour than funky, with a slightly bitter hop character and some light malt. Mouthfeel is lively carbonation, light and dry start and finish. beerinmarch (2829), Washington, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Dec 16, 2009 Deep gold body with a tall white head. Dry brett ridden nose, the barn, the hey, the must... the hops. The play between the earthy funk of the brett and the citrus/grapefruit of the IPA hops actually meshed nicely. Very dry body, soft caramel and honey notes up front. kiefdog (1631), Tampa, Florida, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Dec 16, 2009 75cl bottle from Whole Foods (Tampa, FL). Pours a generally clear amber to copper color with massive three finger bright white foamy head that settles slowly. Aroma is floral with notes of bread, yeast, spice, brett, caramel, honey, pepper, barnyard funk. Flavor is about the same. Medium body with a spicy, fruit, funk finish. allfreej (375), Louisville, Kentucky, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Dec 14, 2009 Bottled. Cloudy copper pour, yellowish, off-white, foamy head. Nose was funky, horseblanket, sandalwood. Flavor was musty, barnyard, malty, bitter dry finish. The brett outshines the hops, though the finish had some hop spiciness. bfields (3), London, Greater London, England does not count | 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Dec 13, 2009 Excellent. Aroma is a beautiful marriage of hop and barnyard. Color is deep amber. Carbonation is high, giving a large, short-lived head, that leaves a trail of lace. Hop flavor shines through in the taste. This is followed by well integrated barnyard notes and persistent bitterness. Can I have another? badlizard (2373), Berkeley, California, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Dec 10, 2009 A damn fine beer. Hazy orange with a fluffy off white head. A white wine, sour, oak, and apricot aroma and taste nicely balanced between the sour and bitter and slightly dry in the finish.
