On tap at Craft & Carry UWS, pours a cloudy rusted red with a small beige head. Aroma has plenty of dry buckwheat, grainy notes, and a little oak. Flavour is somewhat estery, with toasted grains, and wild yeast. Estery and grainy. A bit messy and uncoordinated. Not so good.

Fritzl’s Lunchbox, Brooklyn bottle (too much money): Pours light, dull amber with a whitish head. Aroma was pretty dope. Buckwheat, yeast, and a nice light fruitiness. Taste had a nice farmhouse feel to it. The malts and the yeast worked very well together. Nice finish. Well balanced. This was a good one from Transmitter, which for me is a hit or miss type of brewery.
