On tap at brewery:
Pours a nice golden with a very clear body. Head quickly recedes to the rim, medium ring left there. Sparse to no lacing.
Nose is a nice mix of the Brett tart funkiness (little lean to tart) and a grassy pale. The nose maybe could favor the funky yeasty a little less.
The taste is more sour than I'd hoped for a "pale ale", with a sour peach impression overall. There is less funk and more sour, like the nose, but a bit magnified. The sour notes aren't bad, I'm just missing the mix with the base beer.
If I look for the bitter-leaning balance of malt and hops, I do notice it. However, it's a little effort and I end up wanting a little more of the grassy hops that get trampled by the tartness. Warmth, as it usually does, blends the notes a little better, and brings about a green apple skin note as the tart and bitter mix.
Lightly refreshing feel, this still seems a little more like a sour than a pale ale. Then again, it's a pale, sour lightly bitter beer. Just doesn't hit the mix I enjoyed in Little Brett (though a lofty comparison, I guess).

Pours a pale golden character. Some nice funky aromatics. Like the upfront tangy funk but the finish is like when you leave a penicillin pill on your tongue before swallowing. You know, the kind of taste that you really have to SHAKE off. It's alright until that.
