3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Aroma is the classic, medium-light JP funk and brett. Medium-deep copper pour. Flavor is surprisingly herbal and dry with a medium bitter bretty finish.
3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle: Dirty straw, deep, dark, and hazy, large rocky white head, nice lacing. Bretty nose,
bright, tart, and also woody. Smells pretty damn good! A little sweet up front, minor chalk, just a minor
tart twang, with wooden aspects bringing up the rear. Can’t really tell that it is a Pale Ale, but with the wood
(Oak) and what that I can only assume is Bret, a Pale Ale other than a NW Pale Ale would hardly be noticable.
The balance between the tartness, sweetness, and the Oak is rather pleasing. This is a pleasure to drink.
Not real big on the backside, but its clean. Body and mouthfeel are moderate. Only thing I would say is it
could be a little heavier and have a bit more umph on the backside. It his however fairly tasty and well
balanced. Thanks Kevin!

Sampled at an esbls tasting. Very hazy and golden. A tiny off white head. The noseis funky and sour. It has just a bit fruity. The flavor is also sour and fruity. Enough sweetness that I can handle it. Not bad at all.
