Rating: 3.25/5

Rating: 4.25/5
Notes: I’ll be honest that the first De Garde beer I had was too weird and out there for me but I’ve seen a million posts about De Garde so I had to give them another shot. This one had lots of enjoyable flavors. Tart for sure but very tasty. The wild yeast is certainly interesting.
Bottle art: Consistent and clean but nothing special. I like their logo.

bit of tanginess in there from the fresh hops as expected but it works well with the juiciness.
Can art: Super cool design. Very modern and well made design
