Seems infected to the whazoo but still very pleasant. Champagney with bubble bath foam. Touch of peppermint. Some floral aromas. Light and slightly thin but very lively body. Finishes with a bit of nut spice. Spectacular.

I had this beer at a party with some friends. I am not a Chai fan, but like IPA’s. But this beer is truly unique. Initial Chai essence, and then a well balanced and nicely bitter finish. This beer came out of a growler, so I assume it is on tap, but I’m not sure if it is available in bottles.

Bottled straight from the tap at the brewery. Kept cold at all times and drank about 3 weeks later.

Opaque reddish orange, and for a Beer capped right in front of me from the tap, the head was absolutely amazing, thick and sturdy!
Green, wet and citrucy hops, with sort of an acidic, herbal twang that almost smelled like a bad perm, something I’ve detected and hated before, but this time the C hops subdued this effect just enough for me to not be turned off by it.
A really interesting mix of curry spices, hops and definately some tea leaves, possibly gunpowder. I detected some tea-like tannic bitterness along with the hops, the finish had oranges and spices, caraway seeds perhaps. A really interesting Beer that surprised me when I sampled it at the brewery, and I’m glad I brought one home.
