Mar 31, 2009 Man is this the shit! A crisp triple base - slightly on the dry side, with subtle brettanomyces and woody elements coming through. Balance is truly out of this world! Fizzy and refreshing, but highly complex and absolutely wonderful!

Mar 18, 2009 Pours dirty orange with light beige head. SMell is lightly funky malt. Taste is funky, odd, old and strange maltiness. Medium to thin body. Not good. Ugh...

Mar 16, 2009 Draft @ Monk’s Cafe: This was part of PBW and the Brett Pack Dinner. Rob Todd told us a story about how this beer was a total mistake and was told he would never be able to produce this again. He has now produced around 6 batches, after discovering the Brett Yeast. This beer was a lighter shade of orange. The aroma was sour, citrus, hops, and oak. The flavor was smooth and delicious. Hints of wood, funk, dark fruit, sour, grapefruit, and a tiny bit of hops. Overall, an A++ beer from Allagash.

Mar 15, 2009 On tap at Capones. Poured a medium amberish/orangish color with virtually no head at all. Aromas of woodiness, grapes, vinous, and brett. Tastes of vinous, grapes, funky, earthy, and some spices.

Mar 2, 2009 A jazz solo that I listened to intently and found initially off key followed by poor timbre then somewhat pleasant and then ultimately making me think the piece was beyond the range of the individual. To each their own, but I find the most pleasant aspects of brett seem to be dumbfounded by higher ABV.

Mar 1, 2009 750 ml bottle. January 2007 vintage. A cloudy pale amber beer with amedium sized and not much lasting white head. The aroma is yeasty with notes of citric fruits and wood, the last not overwhelming. Quite complex and powerful. The flavour has a medium sweetness and a medium acidity, quite funky, citric and with some spiciness (maybe pepper). Only medium body, average carbonation, dry long finish with light to medium bitterness, lightly alcoholic. Complex and drinkable, not too oaky. Another winner from Allagash.

Feb 21, 2009 Deliliah VintageTasting. Pours with a slightly cloudy orange-amber body topped by a medium thick to thick head with a good amount of lacing. The aroma is sour and tart with a note of lemon and a nice funk. The flavor is sour yet floral...it loses a lot in the flavor. Medium bodied, crisp and dry.
