3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
On-tap in the Rogue Pub on Union St, San Fransisco on 3rd Feb 2013.
Red with a copper hue: on top a thin covering of almost salmon pink bubbles.
The nose and taste were simular to ’gluhwein’, with extra cloves thrown in for good measure. Strange but interesting brew and a good night-cap after an evening trying most beers on the bars chalkboard.
