Bottle, at cgarvieuk’s, with Stella, the kids, and Traci. Really great tasting Craig—thanks! Deep brown, fine off-white head. Just a pinch of brown sugar, rustic cold sea tide pool. Fine textured gentle sourness, plums earth, apples, pepper, autumn leaves. Lingering fruity lemon. Refreshing, moorish, really well-balances and delicious beer. Nice place to have started our tasting.
