Bottle at home. Gushed out of the bottle, murky yellow amber, thick bubbly white head. Nose is grassy hop, slight malt, and surprisingly a bit of lambic sourness?! Not sure if it’s meant to be there or not. Fizzy, tangy hop front, hint of bready malts, peppery dry finish. Not bad.
3.6 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle at home, bit of a gusher which was a surprise and I would think unusual. Nice, deep golden haze and, once the foam subsided, pleasant lacing. From the nose, the beer may be a bit old (didn’t specify on the bottle) as it seemed a little sour and tangy, almost lambic-like. Fine bubbled carbonation in the mouth. Tastes a bit tangy as well, but I’m not complaining! Touch of marmalade as well in there. If it’s meant to be like this, great, if not, I recommend ageing it for a bit!
