Ommegeddon is a Belgian-style ale with a wild twist; a dose of Brett yeast and a blast of dry-hopping. Its dryness and funkiness beget the name.

Can't read the bottle date, but I believe this is a new release, batch #7
Pours a fizzy bubbly 1/2 finger head with fair retention, a little lacing, clear honey blond straw color
Nose brings some Brett, a little barnyard funk, saison base with grainy cereal malt, straw, grassy, mild citrus, lemongrass, mild spices, citrus zest, some sweet cereal and raw bread dough, little candy like
Taste brings more base saison, farmhouse like, more grainy straw doughy malt, maybe wheat, sweet cereal and fruity candy, wet hay, lemongrass and general citrus zest, mild barnyard Brett funk, not a lot of Brett there for now, but will prob take over in later years, a bit of lemon cake and phenol spices, fair bitterness with mild grassy lemony spicy hops, med-light bitterness at first, finishes a bit drier with more spicy grassy almost green hop character and med bitterness
Mouth is med bod, higher effervescent carb, a touch of warming alcohol
Overall not bad, a bit on the sweet side, and wish the Brett came through more, so I think both of those can be accomplished with some age on this, but otherwise not bad

Batch #2, March 2008. From my cellar.
Super funky, and not all that hoppy after 8 years of cellaring. But the funk was ever present throughout. Sharp mouthfeel with a very dry finish.
Loved it.
