2020 Vintage.

Clear golden coloration; soft white head of carbonation settles in a thin ring around the beer.

The nose opens with a musty sweetness and candied lemon peel. Really nice balance of funk and citrus.

The palate is tart and predominantly fruity, with a bit of a tightening pucker on the back of the palate and a long, mildly acidic finish. Nice juiciness to the overall profile.

A touch of dryness, with a soft finish and gentle lingering tannin.

2019 version, drank 06.19.22 out of a Hill Farmstead bulbous wine glass. Straw color with very delicate islands of head but other than that, not to much there. Not too much nose either. Funky and acidy taste, strong. Very pungent, strong and tasty. Pretty amazing beer. Just wow.

2016 poured from fridge on 5/20/21

Pours a clean straw. Nose of white wine, somewhat jammy (cherry, strawberry?), Funk and barnyard, and honey as it warms. Taste of funk, jammy characteristics, vinous. Feel is light with medium carb. Overall, wow! What an excellent wild and held up very well.
