Cask 17A at Brouwer’s, this is a really interesting beer insofar as it’s all funky with very little sourness or tartness. Apart from being a very foreign flavor experience I thought it was quite enjoyable.

WSF. Mainly clear, dark amber-orange and flat. Mildly funky aroma is woody, with subdued apple and must. Dry and sweet at the same time. Flat, juicy, almost viscous palate One of the ones I liked the best, with lots of fruit peels, citrus rinds, and juice also. Excellent character.

On tap at OBriens. Ah, yes. My good old neighborhood bar. I was ecstatically surprised to see this on tap on a random Friday evening. Listed as Vintage on the tap list, although I’m not sure exactly how old. Color is hazy gold that eventually settles to transparency. A nice light white ring of foam edges the beer. Aroma is a beautiful combination funky cheese, musty old oak, citric lemon and orange with wild yeasts. Quite the horse blanket aroma. Flavor is a bit mismatched to the flavor, leaning sweet with robust notes of apricot, orange peel and light vanilla cream. Kind of lacks the funky character of the aroma. Creamy mouth-feel. Easy to drink.
