Kinda Classic is a hoppy Belgian-inspired refresher ripe with fermentation character. We fermented this beer hot with a single strain of expressive yeast, and cold conditioned for a short spell. This one crackles on the palate with notes of black pepper, sweet floral chamomile perfume, lemon pie filling, oily earl grey tea/bergamot, spring time forest, clean pils malts and other bright things sure to please. So refreshing and so complex. Please do not cellar.

Bottle from Cikoko: pours light hazy with white head. Aroma is lightly earthy, citrusy, mellow funkiness. Taste is dry. More funky than sour. Very pleasant aftertaste. Low-key.

500 ml bottle from the brewery, 9/10/21. Bottle dated 3/21. Fizzed out of the bottle at opening. Mostly clear golden color with a large, fizzy froth of white head. Pepper / spice, grains, and funk. Bretty for sure. Lemon and herbal tea. Just a huge punch of flavor for a 4.5% beer. This is really nice.

Reminds me of witbier, tons Belgian upfront flavors, crisp finish, lovely for a hot day, and killer well done Belgian yeast profile. Thanks Giancarlo C. !

Bottle big thanks to Manny G. It pours hazy yellow - gold with a medium foamy white head. The aroma is fragrant, salty, savoury, cracker, herbal, doughy bread and some toasty grain. The taste is crisp, dry, salted cracker, earthy, cereal, soda water, floury bread, grass and tannin with a firmly dry finish. Medium body and moderate - high, foamy carbonation. Not a huge amount of depth.

Bottle shared in London - cheers to Mann. Pours lightly hazy yellow-gold with a creamy, white head. The nose holds perfume, lemon, wheat. Light sweet flavour, some crispy wheat, nips of straw, pale grains. Light bodied with fine, massaging carbonation. Clean finish, more wheat flakes, mild bitterness, biscuits, lemon rind. Great stuff overall. Very drinkable.
