COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Bam is an extra special dog. After surviving being struck by a car, he daily somehow manages to avoid being carried away by the largish birds of prey gliding overhead, riding unseen thermals. Bam’s tenacity seems only to be surpassed by his oversized personality. Join us in this celebration of his excess. More malt, more hops, same vivacious personality.

julian (30) - Seattle, Washington, USA - DEC 19, 2012
Pours a cloudy medium copper color with an insanely huge frothy white head. Aroma is a typical JP brett profile: funky, barnyard, musty with some mild spicy floral hop bitterness. Taste is on the hoppier side for sure, bretty, mild funk, clean crispy finish with a slight lingering leafy hoppiness. Overall, this is a solid hoppy brett ale, not overly complex, with a sessionable ABV. Nice one.

Ferris (499) - Edmonton, Alberta, CANADA - MAY 23, 2013
Bottle - Citrus lemon/lime, tropical fruit and some funky yeast. Effervescent with a foamy (bottle almost blew up) white head and cloudy orange. Lemon and lime in the flavor as well, with a nice bitterness and very dry. Grassy and some spicy hops that play nicely with the other flavors. A nice flavorful patio beer.

Pours a dark dirty gold with a ever increasing light beige head. Aroma is farmy, earthy hops and tartness. Taste is earthy/pine hop bitterness with a small farmy sourness. Nice beer.

Batch 1053/1054, bottled 27/3 2012. Hazy orange with a thick frothy forever lasting good lacing off white head. Aroma is bretty and has notes of juicy yellow apples, orange peel, grass, oak. Taste is light sweet and medium bitter. Light/medium body, oily texture, medium carbonation. Light dry and bitter finish.

MF666 (148) - FAROE ISLANDS - APR 30, 2013
Flot gylden farve med en tæt fyldig skum der bliver hængende. Lidt syrlig duft, særpræget smag af gæren, humlet eftersmag, tør bitter god øl Free Føroyar!!!

Naka (684) - Indiana, Pennsylvania, USA - MAR 2, 2013
Pours a dark reddish amber. Sort of chunky. Has a thick light tan head that laced nicely. Aroma is a slight grainy funk, but not nearly what I expected. Flavor is a bit caramel sweet, but is balanced well with a peppery bitterness. Slight funk and caramel fruit. Body is light, but holds up with a tight carbonation. Finishes bitter and dry.

Big nice off white head, pours light amber. Very nice brett, funky earthy, herbal, lactic lemon aroma..taste misses a bit..big herbak hop, bitter and very dry. Earthy hop, dry finish.

I feel like I liked the beer more than this rating, but it’s valid. It’s got a really effervescent carbonation and a dry farmhouse finish, but really not a ton of character it terms of taste. Almost like a saison that needs a little more punch.
