4.5 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 19/20
Bottle at North Bar, Leeds (Brooklyn and Nogne night). Aroma is stunning fruity funk - loads of juicy esters and yeast notes. Taste is truly brilliant, apricot, orange, some tart apples too. Like a 10% gueuze. Hint of sweetness, all the more remarkable as Gartett told us there was "no residual sugar". Dry sharp finish. This is utterly awesome.

Bottle at The Diamond during the Brooklyn Ghost Bottles event. Pours hazy pink with a slight, white film. Lovely brett nose, sour and tart fruits with hints of sugar. Pretty beautiful flavor, sour and slightly funky, very sweet, notes of sugar and some tart berries. Medium to full in body with soft, massaging carbonation. Warm finish, sweet, sugary and funky, hints of booze. Solid.
