From a May 2015 bottle into a Crooked Stave snifter.
Pours slightly cloudy. A pure white, softly packed foam covers. Froths as it recedes, slowly, becoming quite thick. Lacing throughout. Thickly layered in thin strips around the glass.
Aroma is citra from the initial crack of the bottle crown. Afterwards the scents retreat to a place similar to the amarillo version. Lemon, tart, Brett, and light touch of sweetness. Brett takes the center as it warms.
Taste offers up sweetness and Brett. The Brett character is earth and spice. Lemon and passion fruit smolder in the background. The finish balances well between sweet and bitter to create a smooth end.
Medium body with solid carbonation. Dry. No bitterness in the finish but a sweet-tart.
The beer seems better than the amarillo, which was more lemon and funk, not much Amarillo. Therefore this version brings a nice balance between Brett funk, hop and sweet. Complex, yet the balance and dryness create an easy to drink beverage. Enjoy!
