4.33/5  rDev +4.6%
look: 4 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 4

The beer is poured with a golden colour and a huge white fluffy head. The bubbles are of a decent size and the carbonation is very apparent. There is a bit of sweetness and fruitiness in the nose. A spiciness is there as well. There is citrus and pear notes coming through. The nose isn't very strong, but very solid. The beer has a lot of flavours. A slight pilsner type flavour mixed with a sweetness with hints of pear and a slight bit of citrus. The sweetness in the beer isn't what I'd expect because the beer is so dry. The carbonation is quite strong as well adding a little of acidity to the beer. I really enjoy this flavour and it's incredibly drinkable. A slight tartness lingers on your tongue, which I like. This is an incredibly tasty brew.

3.71/5  rDev -10.4%
look: 4 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3.75 | feel: 3.75 | overall: 3.75

Pours Dark golden/brown - short white head
Smells of champagne and sour grapes and mild alcohol
Taste medium carbonation medium body, astringent (puckering), sour grapes
Overall fairly surprised at the bros 100 rank but the Brett definitely adds a pretty nice complexity and doesn't overshadow the other grape and hops.. Might buy another bottle to age
