26.08.2018, tap @ Taphouse:
Small bubbly shortlasting head, clear light golden color. Aroma is slightly sweet, toasted honey, hay, minerals, alcohol, grass, oak, grain, flowers, fruit stones, hints of mild vinegar. Taste is sweet mineraly, honey, minerals, alcohol, hay, grass, oak, flowers, mild vanilla, grain, hints of mild vinegar. Light and slightly sweet sour-ish mineraly mouthfeel. Fair enough, I expected a huge bourbon thing here, and got basically none...
