750 ml. bottle, 2012 vintage- Pours hazy orange with a two finger white head. Aroma is brett, which i did not know coming into this beer, which is always an awesome surprise, some tartness, cherries, overripe plums, getting aromas that I was not expecting to get. The taste is, shall I say tasty, cherries, barnyard brett, more mellow not in your face tart, mild alcohol burn. Unbelievable I found this in the 20% off budget bin at my local beer shop, this brewery continues to amaze!

Golden color with a large white head. Aroma is a slight hint of banana with yeast. Flavor is slightly spiced and peppery with a big yeast profile. Nicely balanced while still being aggressive with flavor.

08-MAR-2013, bottle @Sonni, @Ulkløbben tasting.
Clear orange with low off-white head.
Sweet aroma with caramel. Fruity and very spicy. Not spices I can really name. - Much like a saison on EPO. High carbonation, full body, sweet.
OK but too spicy for me.

The first time I had this was on tap, and I remember it being darker than this. But I was still excited to get a bottle for only $3.99 at Total Wine & More. I grabbed two bottles in case I really liked it! I am NOT a fan of brettanomyces, but this one is balanced and the yeast doesn’t really overpower the flavor of the beer. It was a nice after dinner drink, and has a big ABV that is well hidden in the flavor profile. This is a seasonal release from Lost Abbey, and I am curious to see how well the other bottles ages. If you like a good, easy drinking yeast forward beer, this is for you.

750 ml bottle to oversized snifter (shared with the Mrs.). Looks good; a murky brownish-orange with sticky off-white lacing. Smells solid; caramel and dark fruit with a twangy touch. Tastes like it smells with a good mouthfeel. Good beer.
