jerc (5444) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - MAR 11, 2008
2008-03-01. headless amber body. Modestly funky aroma, mildly musty. Lightly sour muted hay and grains, sour-tart fruity overtones linger in the finish and aftertaste. (6+) Average to light palate is effectively still and uncarbonated. Cool to try but not overly exciting.
