Tap at Right Proper. From notes.
A - Poured light golden with two fingers of white head. No visible carbonation, spotty lace and a film of retention.
S - Yeast, wood, honey, wheat. Light and sweet aromas. Nice.
T - Sweet grain, wheat, honey, apple, vanilla. Quite a lovely aroma that I wasn't expecting at all. Subtle and soft aromas.
M - Super smooth, nice carbonation that was mild, light body.
O/D - Pleasant and drinkable. Well crafted. The barrel does a nice, yet subtle job of adding complexity to the beer. Quite a lovely little beer they've produced here.

Their standard Ornette grisette aged for two months in New Columbia Ginavit barrels which previously held Laird's Apple Brandy.
A: Straw gold, hazy, with a white and fluffy head.
S: Hints of sour apple, lemon, dill, and old hay.
T: Ornette, only smoother around the edges. A little bit of spice and the slightest hint of herbal hops are washed away by vanilla, apple, and a bit of lemony acidity. Perfectly balanced.
M: Effervescent, yet full.
O: A subtle use of a barrel that doesn't try to kill your palate with spirit flavors, but instead supports the beer and helps to mutually showcase the beer and the barrel. Very good work.
