Canned 3/25/26, drunk 9/6/26, compliments of tfontana. Thanks, Tom!
Ultra soft with a hint of cellar must/funk and just all sorts of wacky, earthy, leafy hop notes. Absolutely understated and subtle but there's something new every time you smell it. Fruity yeast, toasted malt, honey-like malt, herbal hops, grassy hops....to perpetuity.
Soft and watery per the style with floral accents and gently bready malts. Delicate honey and such. At almost six months out, the overt hoppiness is gone but there are still beautiful undertones. Everything is soft, classy, subtle but expressive here. This is like the shitty English bitters I used to drink on nitro at bars in college (Tetley's, Boddingtons, etc...) but instead of zero hop character and old, uninteresting malt, this is all high quality ingredients. Ridiculously flavorful, balanced and drinkable for its size. If Dan doesn't always knock it out of the park with the American-style hoppy stuff, his traditional and farmhouse ales are almost always masterpieces.
