Big thanks to rudzud for sharing.
Pours nice creamy fluffy head, nice lacing, mostly clear candy red orange color.
Nose tons of sour, tart funk, juicy stone fruit, fresh and sour peaches, little nectarine, tangy acidity, nice acetic acid, lactic too? little creamy malt too. Faint berry horse blanket in the background, little vanilla barrel oak.
Taste very very sour, nice sour funk, lacto funk, sour peach and fresh peach, little nectarine and generic stone fruit, juicy flemmy fruit with sticky, little malty flavor, etc. Tons of buttery and vanilla oak, nice acidity, acetic acid. Flemmy finish, hint creamy lacto, tangy, more peach and stone fruit, fleshy stone fruit, nice sourness lingering, little acid and tang.
Mouth is med bod, stickier than I expected, nice carb.
Overall very nice.

Into a wine glass
Dark brown-orange appearance, effervescent. Nose is of ripe berries, lemon peel, oak. Flavors follow, accented with subtle notes of cherry cola and toffee. Heavy suggestions of rhubarb and lemon peel toward the finish.
An absolute knock out beer. I took this out of my cellar 4 years ago and has been sitting at room temp…no negative impact.

Opaque almost neon orange, looking like a modern haze bomb but smoother and cleaner, with minimal head.
Soft peach, honey and oak are tart with a woody semi-dry swallow capping off the tingly medium body.
