Purchased at Enotecca Bonatti in Florence, March 2009. bright orange, thick looking beer, almost like egg yolk. Yeast aroma, with brett. Surprisingly complex flavor, with wheat, coriander, more yeast, lemon. It is tart, sourness is getting close to a lambic.

Nice sour and bready yeast nose with some barnyard. Pretty, hazy yellow. Sharp but satisfying & clean sour - would make a stellar summer deck beer.

[bottle] shared by jk. Pours hazy gold with a dissipating white head. Aroma has evident Brett, but it works, light coriander and lemon. Wow, the flavor is quite sour, lactic, some brett, a touch of sulfur, lemon, this is much better than the ratings suggest.

A beautiful hazy gold body with faint white head. Plenty of lees floating around the bottom. A nice citrus and sour aroma with faint egg. A very light and almost fruity body an evervescent finish. Thanks to JK for sharing.
