Appearance is actually not bad. A little bit hazy but it is a good, pale gold colour with a nice, fluffy white head.

The aroma indicates that there may be problems. It's a bit musty with a touch of Brett like barnyard. Very faint malt.

Unfortunately, they have got an infection here. Ordinarily I would call it a bad bottle but I have yet to try a good beer from these guys so it gets reviewed as this seems to be a problem with the brewery generally. Tart with a hint of acetic and then a dose of funky Brett. The bitterness is surprisingly high and is actually a touch unpleasant. Not good at all.

Medium-light body with high carbonation. It's fine but the high carbonation betrays the infection.

Not good at all. Tough to drink due to the off-notes.

Serving type: bottle
