500ml bottle split between a pair of curvy Fremont glasses. If there's a date on the bottle, I don't see it, but I bought it September of last year.
Pours somewhat hazy, kind of a dark straw color, with very little head, slow carbonation that builds up a ring a little while after the pour. Smell is kind of stone-fruit tart, funky, oaky, greens and green grapes (and maybe stems).
Taste is interesting. It's dry, but very grape juicy -- like unripe green grapes or something. Moderate funk, and a fairly strong woodiness. I still get a little bit of a stone fruit tartness.
Mouthfeel is super dry, leading to cotton mouth, but not super light, which is an interesting juxtaposition. Overall...I'm really enjoying it.
