Pours with several fingers of big persistent head, a hazy copper orange with a lot of carbonation streams. Smell is funky and hoppy. Tastes pretty hoppy but the funk is doing some strange things with it. Mouthfeel is rather creamy and sticks in your mouth. Overall, this was interesting and the flavor notes certainly fall in the range of a brett IPA. The bottle label mentions tastes of hay and pine, but I don't particularly like the way they come together.

They're watching you. Pale golden in color. Classic Brett IPA flavors. Floral. Pineapple, unripe mango, pine and grapefruit pith. Super dry, slightly funky finish.

Had on tap at Meadhall. The beer had a murky appearance, mostly yellow in color, and a thin head. Aromas were really good with a rich complexity of different hop aromas. The taste did not follow the nose exactly, however, and the beer had a decent, bitter hop characteristic. In general, the beer had a medium carbonation. Overall, the beer was good.
