Golden and hazy with lots of carbonation, and topped with 3 fingers of foamy white head.
Smells of Brett, funk, slightly fruity like melon, with hints of oak.
Tastes of Brett, hay blanket, funk, slightly sweet, slightly sour, with hints of fruity floral qualities much like lily of the valley and asian pear. Hints of oak and deep woody quality.
Medium body, with moderate carbonation, this beer is really smooth and pleasant in its mouth feel.
I got this at Brou Ha Ha in Gatineau, Quebec in a pack of 4 special brews from this company. Drinking in Toronto near the airport May 3rd, 2018. Excellent brew.

From a 341ml bottle, dated 2017-10-27. Label and 7% abv differ from those shown above. Served in a tulip.
Pours a slightly hazed, cheerful sunshiney-gold with a scant half-finger of head which doesn't really last long enough to get a good look at.
Smells all clean and sharp with bretty yeast, lemons and balsam.
Tastes just like it smells, sort of sharp and puckery, but tart, not sour. Lemons and white wine, orange zest, resiny pine needles and sugar cookie dough. Crisp and sweet with a long, tart green apple finish.
Feel is full and round with medium body and good carbonation.
An interesting melange of tart, fruity yeast and barrel with aromatic, fruity hops make for a really complicated-in-a-pleasant-sort-of-way palate. 12oz was hardly enough to get to know it.

I don'y know if it is the same version, but I'm having the one released in 2017, and it's 7% abv instead of the 7,5% in the description (and 6,5% on the picture). The color is a deep orange with dense foam but not a lot of retention altough a good lacing. The nose reminds me of sweet apples, some yeast spicyness, and herbal hops. It's also woody and there are some notes of red wine. The taste is a little bit spicy, with wooden notes, some cloves, pepper, a little hop bitterness but not overwhelming. Fairly round. I sense some brettanomyces both in the nose and on the palate.

12 oz. bottle. Pours a hazy orange without much of a head. Smells of grapefruit and orange, some pale malt, and red wine. Tastes pretty much the same. Red wine permeates a grapefruit and orange hop flavor. The hops are not bright, as you would imagine. A little bit of sweetness with oak and bitterness. Red wine lingers in the aftertaste. Low carbonation. Tastes pretty good, but it might be a struggle to drink a whole bottle.
