Aroma: “Subtle dark plum fleshy sweetness complements the Brett funk and bready malt. It’s a bit tropical—maybe some passion fruit or pineapple. There’s a light floral touch and some sour notes.”

Flavor: “This is much more sour than it smells—mostly lactic with a touch of acetic. The plum esters add a nice roundness, and the fruity sweetness flows into a tart sourness with a sweet-tart finish. The Brett is kind of hard to find while cutting through the acidity.”

Overall: “The tartness up front is supported by the sweetness of the plum with other fruit notes, but the acidity overwhelms it. It would be better if the plum character to shone through more. This is a slow-sipper for sure.”
