Cellar Reserve 2013 beer. Split with the GF.A – Pours like grapefruit juice. A Cloudy pink hues with no head at all.

S – A plum not having too much going on, I’d say this beer is dominated by an acetic nose with grape and ropey brett funk.

T – Quite grapey and high acidity just like a grapefruit or tangerine without the sweetness. Not a lot of oak, not too sweet. Citrus acidity just sort of hits in waves. Grape skin mustiness. reminds me of warheads but not as sour

M – Oily mouthfeel, not a lot of carbonation and a crisp tart finish

O – This is quite good. Not my favorite L’Brett but is a nice sipper and thirst quencher.
