COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Spring Tonic was brewed with plants that were coming up in our garden during mid-spring this year: dandelion, carrot tops, and clover, with ginger from All Seasons Farm in Cobden. It is fermented with our wild house culture. Spring Tonic has a lemonade-like tartness with a light ginger finish. Some have had this beer on tap and know how refreshing it is! This bottle marks a series of non-hopped beers we’ll be releasing that are bittered and flavored with plants that grow in our area. While it’s no longer spring, the beer features spring herbs and is bottle-conditioned, making it available in the bottle a little later than the season; it is, however, wonderful any time of year.

In bocca è acida, tart, limone, astringente, erbe. Corpo medio, carbonazione media. Molto particolare e ben fatta, anche se non me ne berrei più di un bicchierino.

Steinkamp (2) - Carbondale, - JUL 24, 2017 does not count
Spring tonic is worth waiting around for. Good amount of ginger and a distinct salad greens taste from the nettles. Fresh and a little tangy. Nice fizz and a great aroma. Best served and kept cold.
