Captain’s Log: 1938. A young boy is homebound. Suddenly all sounds go mute and he is shrouded in light. He disappears without a trace. 30 years later he returns. He speaks of space monks and distant galaxies. Some call him messiah, some call him the devil. After a while the world forgets about the boy, but he swears to go back. That boy was me.

Draft @ Borefts 2014. Modest saison, with the usual dry yeastiness. Not very grassy and a bit thin. Has some slight acidity, which is nice.
