Very cloudy dark orange. 1 finger head. Very small nose. Maybe some lemon lime? Not what I was expecting. There’s this copper penny and metal steel wool taste. Some salt olive brine and nasty rusty pipe taste at the finish. Just not very good

Sample at Kurtkeller 014: Almanac-tastic 01 on 06/27/2014. Pours a clear deep golden color with a medium white head that recedes steadily. Stringy lacing on the glass. Aroma of tart fruit, malt and yeast. Medium-bodied with flavors of tart fruit, doughy yeast and oak. The finish is tart fruit up front with a bready malt and yeast aftertaste. Above average overall.
