Jun 13, 2009 Pours a clear golden color with a moderate pillowy white head. Good retention and lacing. Aroma of brett, dry hay and raisins. Flavor is sweet dried fruits (figs) and caramel malt. Brett is present, although not as strong as in the aroma. Mouthfeel is dry and slightly astringent. Some alcohol burn in the finish. The brett in this is nicely balanced and doesn’t overpower the other flavors. This would be a decent "Intro to Brettanomyces" beer for someone getting into craft beers, but beyond that it’s just an OK beer.

Jun 7, 2009 [22 oz] Nice aromatic nose; very brett-focused, with some mild spiciness. Pours an effervescent golden color with a nice layer of foam. Flavors are full of spice, with strong fruit esters blending with all the brett. Finishes a bit sweet. An interesting beer, indeed.

Jun 6, 2009 Bomber. An interesting brew - clear gold with a white head. Very bretty nose, funky and sour, but tempered with a whole lot of fig and tropical fruitiness. rather sweet flavor, fruity with an emphasis on fig, lightly spicy. Finish comes off somewhat dry and lightly funky tart. This brew really grew on me, and I was sorry to find the bottom of the bottle.

Jun 6, 2009 golden with large white head. moserate to high carbonation. yeasty and fruity nose. flavor starts with fruity belgian esters then some hop bitterness before some mild wild yeast funk. the finish is very dry without much body. a decent and refreshing brew

May 31, 2009 Pours hazy pale orange.
Nose is of Italian seasoning and banana peel.
Taste is rather bitter, lots of cluttered spice flavor, kind of a kitchen cabinet flavor. Lots of brett, lots of herb flavors.
Tastes like a dry pork rub.

May 29, 2009 Incredibly fruity and sweet smell. Tart tastes mixed with sweet flavors. Very well mixed and balanced. Sweet and smooth.

May 27, 2009 Bottled in April of 2008, this bomber was shared during a local Memorial Day tasting. Poured a beautiful hazy gold-yellow with a billowing head that diminished over time. Right away I could smell the brett and noticed it’s similarity to Orval. Musty fruits with a funky yeast quality. Earthy and assertively spicy. Lightly tart feeling with a quenching, medium bodied finish. Pears, lemon grass, and musty funk. Tart fruits and wild yeast flavors. A hint of pepper and spice. Mellow, wild beer. This beer was well received.
