Densely sedimented. Yellow. Thick, creamy white head. Big sweet malt nose with light coriander, calamansi. Full-bodied, balanced between a lush marshmallowy sweetness and a subtle acidic bite of obscure citrus. Coriander is apparent but restrained. Hop spiciness in the finish makes a perfect accent. Well thought-out wit.

3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 12/20
Draft at Elysian Fields. Pours cloudy bright golden with a dense but shallow platinum blonde head. Minimal lace. Bright candied herbs on the nose, smells sweet and pungent. Creamy medium body, refreshing. Forward flavor of basil. Yeah. Basil. Not much else. After the rather monochromatic effort at herbs and spices, the flavors fall away to fairly well nothing and the finish is not much. Has a lot going for it in the way of appearance and mouthfeel. Needs some work on flavor and aromatics.
