Flight 4/4 displays a semiclear, deep gold complexion. The foamy lid is like thick whipped cream but at a reasonable level only. Floral lemon is what I would call the scent. A bit gardeny. Gives me odd vibes. The gustatory profile is composed of lemon, lime, lemongrass, tea, fresh grass, distant rosemary and wheat malt. The body clocks light. Merely. The tail is lemony with a wisp of lime touch, basically identical to upfront. The mouthfeel is light, zesty, marginally tart,  floral, dry, drying and moderately puckering. As well as slightly herbal. A bit confusing but not necessarily in a bad way.

Flight 3/4 colors lucid, tea brown. The creamy head is adorable, billowy and extremely fluffy. Purple grape, dried plum and blackberry in the fragrance. Wheat malt, no question about it. And red wine foeder. The tongue receives dominant sour grape, blackberry, raisin, dried plum, red wine, oak foeder, wheat malt and alcohol. Medium to medium-full body. Not up to the level of the demanding ABV. This should absolutely be a Smoothie version, now this feels even thin to the strength. I mean relatively. The finish doesn't step outside the beaten track. Feels juicy, pulpy, intense, alcoholic, a bit tart and drying. The ABV should give more.

Flight 1/4 (2) shows a brilliant gold face. Really shiny. A thick, clean white head. A super impotent scent but once I manage to identify something, it is orange or blood orange and dried apricot. The tongue loves the resinous fruity cocktail: resin, apricot, blood grapefruit, a bit of mandarin, oat flakes. Medium-full. Wow! Okay, no wow, this clocks 8.2 %. Ends with bags of resin, blood grapefruit and apricot. The mouthfeel is medium-full, crisp, dry, a tad drying but also surprisingly soft and smooth.

Flight 4/4 (1) is dressed in lucid, pale gold. The foamy cap displays tiny bubbles with an off-white hue. The fragrance is more or less nonexistent. I'm trying hard to pick anything but in vain. Or almost. A faint floral note emanates to my nostrils. Not particularly attractive. The palate is lemony and a bit passionfruity. Maybe green apple. And modest lactic acid. Light-bodied despite the ABV. The finish doesn't change from upfront. Feels juicy, relatively tart, puckering, slightly acidic but still flat.

Flight 3/4 (1) wears transparent gold. The froth is pure white and fluffy. Long-lived. Thyme and rosemary merge with wheat malt in the fragrance. Thyme lands on my tastebuds. No rosemary. But it's there sage? Not sure though. Wheat malt there is. Leaves a zesty, herbal, somewhat tart and a tad puckering impression. This one is summery. I like the innovativeness here, as well.

Flight 2/4 (1) differs in appearance: limpid mahogany. Beautiful. So is the dense moussy, cappuccino-colored head. Lasts forever basically. Vanilla cream in the air. Not much but anyway. And a bit of biscuit. [•••] Now, this is where my tastebuds get confused. The gustatory side is totally different: bowls of red wine, oaky foeder notes, purple grape, perhaps even damson. The body is light to light-medium. Ends unchanged, red wine is evident. The mouthfeel is extraordinarily tart, puckering big time, juicy, vinous. And for some reason, autumnal. I can't explain it.

A sour flight. For a starter.  😅 Flight 1/4 (1) colors clear straw. The weakest carbonation and head of all the four. The nose enjoys big mint and moderate ginger. Refreshing. Wheat perhaps in the background (just guessing...). Mint is definitely obvious also on the tongue. Love it! Ginger is a bit timid but can be captured. Wheat, yes. Okay? Light body. The end is minty, what else? Well, gingery, too. Feels refreshing big time! And zesty, spiced, herbal, tart and puckering. But not really acidic. Interesting. Innovative.

Légère amertume, très bon goût fumé, on a vraiment l'impression de manger du Lard les quelques premières gorgées !
