mar (1740), Rowlett, Texas, USA Jul 26, 2008 deep murky orange color with a 1 finger white head. very sour/tart fruity nose. good thickness but the sour/tartness doesn’t continue until the finish. some age should do this beer a lot of justice. HomeBrewHawk (266), De Soto, Kansas, USA Jul 26, 2008 22oz bottle served in a Duvel tulip. Poured a pale gold with a big bubbled head. Nice sour aroma with some apple and a little sugar.
Fairly light body. Plenty of carbonation, spritzy mouthfeel. Flavor is a little lacking, some sweetness, a little more fruit. The Brett comes out in the finish. I didn’t get the figs. This one might need a little more time to mature and gain some more sourness. bobaidan (358), Farmington, Connecticut, USA Jul 22, 2008 Pours cloudy gold with a medium head. Aroma is slightly sour and fruity. Mouth feel is a bit thin, but there is a good amount of carbonation. Flavor is tart fruit, a bit of spice and a lot of earthy funk. The finish is surprisingly dry. An interesting attempt, but more like a failed experiment than a breakout new beer. DocLock (4648), Lower Pottsgrove, Pennsylvania, USA Jul 22, 2008 Pours hazy dull deep gold with 1-finger white head. Nose is florals, fig, rock sugary malt, berries, white pepper, hops. Tastes fruity, with berry notes, plus candi sugary malt, hops, funk, florals. This one is a bit of a mishmash, but points for originality. With age, I think this should improve tangibly. Magjayran (1379), Durham, North Carolina, USA Jul 21, 2008 Golden pour with a decent white head. Aroma is a little tart and fruity but not very bold. The flavor is pretty bad. Thin and sour up front with an offensive soapy taste and some fig notes tacked on at the end as a final insulting parting shot. BOLTZ7555 (1053), Phoenix, Arizona, USA Jul 21, 2008 Quite tasty and unique...love the souring of the brett (a flavor I am beginning to appreciate). Honey gold in color with a 1/4 inch tight white head. The aroma is filled with citrus, pepper, and funk. The tartness is a refreshing addition to summer. WeeHeavySD (2942), San Diego (Hillcrest), California, USA Jul 21, 2008 Tap @ Hamilton’s. I shared this with a friend and it ended up better than I expected. Though it had way too much spice for me. anders37 (4516), Malmö, Sweden Jul 20, 2008 Draught @ Collins Pub, Seattle. Pours a slightly hazy amber color with a small white head. Malty spicy and slightly tart citrus aroma. Sweet malty spicy yeasty flavor with some tart hints. Fruity malty and slightly spicy aftertaste.
