Aug 7, 2008 The pour produces a hazy gold colour with a sudsy off-white head. The nose has ample funk, sugary sweet malts, sweat, dirt, peppery spice and some wet hay. It is certainly musky and has an underlying apricot-jam aroma. The flavour is absolutely filthy, with wild yeast hitting you right away, later moving toward an even muskier and sweatier finish, that is crisp and short. There are flavours of citrus, wheat, banana/clove, peppery spice and FIG. The palate is thin, sharp and very dry in the finish. Different and nice, but a little weak. The finish is a little metallic, but it’s far more funky and dirty.

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.

May 17, 2008 On tap pours a cloudy amber color with a white head. Has that funky leather smell I am getting accustomed to smelling when a beer is brewed with bret. Has a medium mouthfeel. Taste is straight bret, spicy, leathery, musty. Just what I would expect from this brew. Bret lovers only need apply.

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.

May 12, 2008 Pours cloudy yellow, without much head. Aroma is wonderfully complex with wood (hickory, maple), and banana scents. Flavor is pretty sour malt with some dark fruit flavors, and burnt wood finish. Mouthfeel is medium and finish is pucker sour, but kinda in a rotten good way.

Aug 18, 2008 On draft at O’Brien’s. Appearance is translucent light orange hue, thing layer of white foamy head, moderate lacing on the glass. Smell is funky bret, musty horseblanket, tart and sour fruits. Taste is dominated by the farmhouse fun and sourness, opens up to light fruits (pears and apples), slight chalk, light tartness, finishes with alcohol warming and sweet fruit syrup. Medium-bodied, thick and oily texture, highly carbonated. Depending on whether you are a fan of this style, carbonation is overdone, but a good solid example of a wild ale that is best in small quantities.

Jan 29, 2009 Pours a slightly hazed highly effervesent pale gold with 1 finger creamy white head that has great retention. Aroma is moldy hay, wet limestone, crab apple, raw yeast, dandelion leaf and an underlying sweetness that just can’t cut through the funk. Flavor is tart and earthy up front, date nut bread sweetness, hints of sweet dark fruits, sweet amish frienship bread funk, mushroom, light wood notes, walnut skin bitter. Finish is light basement funk and a sort of straw sweetness and toast. Body is medium thin and sort of sticky.

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.
