Tap at the 20th Weekend of Spontaneous Fermentation. It pours very hazy golden yellow, with no head or carbonation. The nose is ginger, wheat, bread, farmyard, smoked ham and smoked cheese. The taste is weak lemon, wheat, cat piss, and weak grapefruit, with a weird spicy finish. The only beer of the fest that I couldn’t finish and also induces headaches.
