Thanks to Ken Mitchell too for sending me this one. I guess I need to enter the non barrel aged one he sent as well. Cheers! Ken.

Courtesy of madmitch76, on RB. Pours hazy deep copper with thin off white head. The aroma is funky barrel tartness with hints of dark fruit and sweet malts off in the background. The taste is similar with out of place funky tartness slipping into a sour note as well as faint beer-ness thinly rimmed around these odd barrel notes.

Thanks to Ken Mitchell and his bottle store in the U.K. The brett was off here, and came into play middle of the first sip. I am afraid there was infection and it is my duty and policy to report this, and the fault of the brewer and his quality control. Colour was fine, with some off-white head on the dark brown. Brett and sourness was in the nose. The sourness did not offput the mouthfeel for me.
