Was able to have a growler picked up at the brewery!!!
A- Looking at this beer reminds me of unpasteurized cider; cloudy amber orange in appearance with plenty of carb bubbles quickly rising to the top!!! Starts off with a beautiful dense head that fades to a skimming with impressive lacing...
S- Sweet citra aroma with what I can only describe as a faint straw aroma presumably from the brett. Really a very clean and balanced smelling beer.
T- The aroma leads perfectly into the overall flavor of this beer, it seems so natural and flowing, if that makes sense. Bright flavors with some spice mingled amongst it all, the single hop is a nice touch and I feel adds to the cleanliness of this beer.
M- This beer is a pleasure to have in my mouth, LOL. silky smooth with a medium body that sits on the edge of oily and dry.
D- If only this beer was year round I can't stop drinking this one, so maybe it's good it's not year round, but please, please, please bring it back again. Outstanding!!!!

Had this one at BCTC and it was supposedly delivered from the brewery upon finishing. This is one of my favorite beers. Grapefruity…… I would never have thought it was a Brett beer.. The only beer I had twice at that fest. Also it was hazy,, which was odd then although we drank some Vermont or NE beers that actually started that trend. Great festival
