Aunt Ginny

Keg at the AVL Downtown location, 4/26/23. Clear pale yellow. Aroma of strong botanicals, sweet apple. Taste is floral, botanical, honey, oak, dry apple.

Bottle from Appalachian. Baby Duvel glass @home. Opaque, pale straw, Duvel bubbles. Smells floral, dusty, sour, sharp. No certainty of gin yet. Taste is twangy. Sour tomato & lime. Bitter apples, skin, bubblegum backside. Lingering lime pith. Sharp sour white vinegar finish. Super fruity, but is it the gin or the wild cider? This fermented hot & is all over the place. It calms down a bit as it airs out. Feel is thin, well carbonated & just a little yeast. Small props for not trying to sneak this in at 6.9% & listing it for what it is. Not my bag though. Wanted more gin & less natural fermentation juju. Meh.
