Pours out a orange/dark gold color with a small to moderate lacing white head. Aroma is of some fruit, hops, and slight brett. Taste is complex, banana, citrus hops and some yeast going on in there too, I got the brett a lot more on the aroma than the actual taste, none the less this was enjoyable.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 Guerde (960) - St. Paul, Minnesota, USA - AUG 4, 2008
(bottle, thanks Sparky27!) Pours gold with a white head that lingers. The aroma is very unique, with aromas of candied carrots, pepper, and must. The taste is very sweet with some caramel, banana, and vanilla, that then transitions to a dry cracker-like finish. I aged this botle for a few months to see if the brett would show up more, but it needs some more time.

Bottle sampled at Lost Abbey during RBSG. Pours the color of unfiltered apple juice and just as hazy. Head is soft with decent retention and nice lacing. Aroma is canned peaches with some funky brett. Flavor is yeasty with a peach syrup sweetness and a dry brett/hops finish. Alcohol is invisible. Interesting beer.

Hazy orange in color with a medium well retaining off white head. Aroma: a good amount of american hops, mostly orange: amarillo? As well as some funky brett and light lemon rind. Taste is a bit mellower than the aroma, but still prietty nice with citrus/orange, a light malty sweetness, with light touches of tart brett and mild funk. Pretty good, and I am sure this will get better.
