3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 TheJestersBeer (1661) - - FEB 4, 2013330ml bottle.
Pours a cloudy medium straw, with a thin white head.
Spicy, malty aroma, citrus, hay, funk, brett, barnyard, a few estery notes, and a hint of bubblegum.
Dry, light to medium body, medium bitterness, relatively low CO2.
Spicy, yeasty taste, malt, earth, grapefruit peel, hay, faint wisps of smoke and phenols.
A very nice effort, but it feels a little bit uncomplex, and the finish is a bit tart/harsh. Promising, but not quite there yet. (2013-02-04)
