750ml bottle thanks to largadeer.

Slightly hazy golden-yellow color with a small white head.

The aroma is a little strangely funky with some sunscreen, oak, pineapple, and brettiness. Maybe a bit vegetal.

The flavor is better, although there’s a bit of Coppertone sunscreen. Also pineapple, coconut, chardonnay, and oak barrel.

Medium-bodied and dry with average carbonation.

Overall, not great. Maybe with some age this could mellow out a bit, but for now it’s probably more useful to spread on your skin for a sunny day at the beach, as the SPF is no doubt pretty high.

look: 3.75 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 4.25 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4

A: Pours a very light yellow color, with a fizzy 1 inch white head. Very bubbly.

S: Extremely sharp, and slightly funky. Smells like tart lemons mixed with Chardonnay.

T: tart, peppery, and extremely dry. Lemons, peppercorns, and lots on vinous qualities.

M: Extremely light bodied with a very dry feel. Lots of sharp carbonation.

O: surprisingly drinkable. Not overly flavorful, but I find myself liking it as I drink more. Very sharp and dry, but crisp and refreshing at the same time. Not great, but better than expected.

750ml bottle poured into a tulip glass per the bottle's recommendation
A: Very pale yellow color with a one-finger head that quickly settles; good carbonation
S: The lemon from the Sorachi Ace hops come through quite strongly along with a bit of apple & Champagne yeast
T: Again some lemon, toast (again a bit Champagne-like) and some sourness from the Brett. Perhaps a bit thin though a lengthy finish
M: Light-bodied, pleasant carbonation
O: Well-made overall, nice complexity, I like how the Brett & Sorachi Ace hops interact with their unique characteristics

look: 3.5 | smell: 4 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4

Bottle: Poured a clear bright yellow color ale with a medium pure white foamy head with good retention and minimal lacing. Aroma of Brett and Chardonnay is quite dominant with light peppercorn and spicy yeast notes also perceptible. Taste is a good mix between some dry Brett notes with some Chardonnay notes with some clearly vinous notes and some spicy peppercorn notes which don’t really fit in too well with the rest of the flavours. Body is light with good carbonation and no apparent alcohol. This is quite enjoyable though with the amount of Brett and Chardonnay notes I am not sure I would call this a wit beer any more. Some spicy notes of peppercorn could be removed since they don’t really bring anything valuable to the whole mix.
