5 oz. draft at Orange & Brew.
Amber color with a bit of rose to it, or more precisely, berry. Very mild fruit and malt nose. Small ring of foam still leaves some legs on the glass. Taste had some tart bitterness from aging on fruit. That also seems to have dried it a bit. Not much birthday, but kind of an herbal funk. Tastes like a mixed grain bill, barley and something foraged. Tastiness builds to a kind of farmhouse junk. But quote pleasant, Everything in proper proportion.
