3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
Slightly hazy golden pour with no head and minimal carbonation. Nose is super faint but fruit and yeast. Smooth but still light body. Sweet fruity with a hint of citrus, grain and honey. Dry-ish finish. Not bad.
This is another "Ancient style" and is sort of mead-like.
2.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
This pours a slightly cloudy orange w/ a thin head of medium bubbles. This doesn’t really smell or taste like a hop-free beer to me. It is just slightly spicy, medium bodied w/ a bit of prickling carbonation. It’s an interesting concept beer but not really exceptional.

Hazy yellow with white puffs of head. Saison yeasty aroma with dates. Taste is fruits... oranges, spices. Orange juice and dates with zero bitterness. Interesting.

2.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
Draft at Churchkey. A weird gruit ale that pours a light yellow. Nose and flavor are akin to a strange cheeseless risotto or grits. The lack of hops just doesn’t work here. Blech.
