4.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 19/20 bhensonb (8997) - Woodland, California, USA - MAR 2, 2012
"Fresh" 750 c&c from The Davis Beer Shoppe in Davis, CA. Cork hit the ceiling. My bad. Pours light dirty gold with a 2 finger creamy white head. Aroma is primarily citrus - but not zesty. It does carry an earthy/bretty tone. Full bodied - probably due to foamy carb. Flavor: my mouth is bretted- not nasty or overdone - just bretted. There’s something I’m going to ascribe to kumquat rind. The foudres must not be too old, cause I’m getting oak astringency. There’s a lot of light stone fruit too. I vote this for the most complex beer of the day! It’s amazing. Finishes dry, astringent, earthy and moderately bready. Brilliant.

Breiter, deutlich brettiger Beginn, hefig. Die Hopfennoten scheinen die Brettnoten noch zu stärken, das Bier erscheint so schon fast unangenehm intensiv. Starke Bitterkeit, viel zu starke Karbonisierung. Sehr trockenes Finish, mit leichten Karamellnoten. Sicherlich ein gewöhnungsbedürftiges Bier. 10/8/8/10/12/8
