Sample @ Stockholm Beer & Whisky 2012. Pours hazy reddish golden with no head worth mentioning. Smell is sweet, sour, fruity and spicy with dark grapes, wood, grass, sweet dark bread, dry soil, leather, woody tannins, barnyard and hints of candi sugar. Taste is sweet and malty with dark bread, brett, dark grapes, black winegums, hay, candi sugar, lemon zest, wood, rosé wine and hints of alcohol. Mouthfeel is tiny dry, round, tiny boozy, tiny tart and medium bodied. Finish is sweet and sour with dark bread, green grapes, wood, hay and dry soil. Very nice...

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.

Drank out of bottle poured by Garret himself at Brooklyn Ghost Bottles event at Blue Ribbon. Pours light rose colored with white head. tastes slightly sour, of oak, wine barrel, yeast, cloves, slightly bitter and pretty dry. kind like a glass of champagne. quite enjoyable

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.
