Bottle - Cabbage and herbal notes. Clear gold with a small white head. Light minty sour notes and a touch of herbal notes. Not great, and surprisingly not sour either. A fail.

A touch of haze, quite dull, vaguely tan coloured. Thin, weak head. Overall, unattractive to the eye. On the nose, an overly yeasty, yoghurty kettle sour...kind of what you don’t want in the style. The hops aren’t especially evident, which is a shame because I really like El Dorado. Similar palate, wherein the essential hop character is lacking, but all the overt wonkiness of a sloppily-executed kettle sour is still there. Really a poor effort that, while sounding good on paper, lacks technical quality.
