- Greg C. is drinking an O.D.B. Vintage 2016 by Sawdust City Brewing Co. at King & DufferinFruit (pineapple, overripe apple, papaya), mild funk, hint of wood & tannin. Remarkably smooth given the high abv.
- Greg C. is drinking a Jelly King by Bellwoods Brewery at King & DufferinAn especially fragrant bottle - very fresh, I think - bringing to mind a Christmas tree covered in juicy lemons and tart oranges. Yum!
- Greg C. is drinking an Inamorata by Folly Brewpub at King & Dufferin10 months old but still in good nick. Nice and tart, peach & gooseberry, slightly funky, all backed by sour woody character. Nice treat.
- Greg C. is drinking a Wild Brett by Rainhard Brewing at King & DufferinSlightly tart with well integrated wood & wine, and Brett notes that are right in that sweet spot between fruity & funky. Wish I had more!
- Greg C. is drinking a Passionfruit Day Game by Left Field Brewery at Bar HopBig bitter hit off the top - more than I'd like - but quickly levels out to a great balance of tart passionfruit and juicy hops. Lovely.
