Common descriptors are
Easily the beer I’m most excited about, this one is from a very nice Hungarian oak ex-Pinot Noir barrel that matured a batch of Four with homegrown yarrow and rose flowers infused into it. The finished beer is a throwback to our Flora Rustica but with a bit more body and wheat character. The nose and flavors are fresh and balanced. Between the beer’s pleasant acidity and sessionable 4.5% abv I hope that we can turn some people onto what a not so extreme beer can achieve.
