UPDATED: SEP 3, 2012 Rerate: Can 2/4. I’ve upped my rating! I’ve never smelled or tasted a more "rotten/horse blanket" bretta brew! Can says that it contains live yeast, and will improve for 5 years. I believe it!
Red amber color. Average head. Aroma and taste were funky bretta and sour. Medium body. $19.99/4 16oz. cans.
4.4 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20 Marheb (1167) - Montréal, Quebec, CANADA - OCT 31, 2012
Croustillante, cuivrée en la versant et déjà l’arôme m’assailli, la couverte de cheval est bien humide. En bouche c’est riche, vivant et brillamment carbonisé, parfait. Les saveurs tourne autour du malt caramel tourmenté par le brett bruxellensis, pas très sûr, juste funky.

UPDATED: OCT 2, 2012 I bought 8 of these and plan to save 5 of them. I’ll drink one a year for the next five years to see just how it ages. As of now I like it. I don’t think I can describe it better than it already has been here. Just to let everyone know, they still have a lot of this at Tiffany’s Wine and Spirit Shoppe in Kalamazoo. Get it while it lasts. Reminds me of a good aged cheese. Lots of character and tart. Can’t wait to see how it ages.

Draft. Poured a clear copper color with an average frothy off-white head that mostly lasted with good lacing. Moderate to heavy sour funk aroma. Medium to full body with a smooth texture and soft carbonation. Medium to heavy sour & sweet fruit flavor with a medium to heavy sweet & sour finish of moderate to long duration. This is a standout beer.

Can pour into goblet. Reddish amber/gold; small, brief head. Tart, fruity, slightly sour. Very nice tasting now, but I am guessing it will taste more complex with age. I better put some away.

Can! Pours a clear copper color with a very light tan head. Funky aroma; sour and some barnyard. At this point is have a more sour note than funky though. Medium mouthfeel. Pear, apple, some sweetness, pineapple, all mixed in with some funk. Not overly sour though. ABV really doesn’t show. Pretty tasty.

Pours a golden amber color with a rapidly dissipating head. Aroma is very fruity, with pineapple, strawberry, and fruit punch. Flavors are pleasantly sweet and sour, with more pineapple and strawberry, with the hops adding some bitterness. No alcohol presence really, but I definitely started feeling it quickly due to the easy-drinking nature of this beer. Pretty awesome, and kinda sad that we won’t be able to get it all the time!

Big thanks to Gtg642 for this one. Served in a mini tumbler.
Pours clear golden with a short fleeting head. Nose is earthy and fruity. Background funk. Flavor has nice Brett plus tropical and citrus fruits. Dry and moderately funky. Some citrus rind and light black pepper in the nose as it warms. Reminds me of the character from the White Labs Brett Trois strain. Goes down quite well.
Quite nice.
