Reviewed from notes.
Can to mug.
Appearance: amber color with a finger and a half's worth of white foamy head which settled off a big quicker than I thought - no lace
Aroma: tons of chammomille; some apple to floral sweetness and a touch of earthy to tea-like whiffs
Flavor: combines the prior noted aromas to a variety of different sweet features; finishes very tea-like and that chammomille
Texture: light to medium bodied; sessionable; good tea-like smoothness; the carb seemed fine
Overall: good for what it was, I think I could come back to this.

On tap at Rock art brewing. Pours out amber topped with a fizzy head. Nose is spice floral tea notes and a nice root. Taste is more of the tea root floral and a well balanced end. I dig this.
