Bottle @ S&B. Deep amber color, slightly hazy brown with a small off-white head. The nose is lemon rind and woody notes, some musty cheese and dank basement. The taste is light metallic lemon rind, with some soft oak wood. Some notes of cheesy sock and wet grape leaf. The finish is light and floral. The body’s quite acidic and agressive. Nice, but quite tart indeed. Overall, very good. Glad I got to try this.

Bottle at Sour & Bitter. Pours hazy golden with a bubbly white head. The aroma is low acid, graoe fruit, citrus and leather. The flavour is dry and fruity with a good amount of acid and leather. Good balance. Flowery and acidic finish.
