This beer is kinda like a barley wine, with the word "wine" in the style description and all. It's made from barley - sure. Vinous? Absolutely. But it's different: a great big whopper, if you can say; bubbly and vivacious; pale as cling wrap. We think Flo would approve.

Big bottle from Mother Kelly online. Pale opaque colour with a thin almost no head. Aroma slight cider yeast and hint of citrus. Dry winey to light sweet. Wow love it.

Bottle, 7C. Pale yellow with a slight green tinge. White head fades a bit, but sticks around longer than mousse does. And the aroma is pretty convincing too - crackery, slight yeast, grassy melony blanc de blancs notes. No heady boozy notes though. All _very_ clever. And then not so great. Sweet, grainy and a bit husky with moderate but rough bitterness. Some grass and gooseberries. The soft creaminess of Champagne that was almost convincingly aped in the aroma doesn’t really come through in the texture. Holds the alcohol remarkably well. This is really clever and for me a more rewarding drink than a ~ $A35 bottle of sparkling wine, but I don’t love it.
