Has hazy yellow body and minim foam. Smells of sour yeast, vague grain. Taste is smooth grain, vague lager hops, leaves a m very odd film left on the tongue, it doesn't feel good at all. It seems janky, needs work.

Billed as a barrel-fermented lagerish kveik thing, I probably should have known better. Barrel-fermented means early exposure to bugs, some of which aren't good. Hazy dull blonde. Thin head. Too sweet. Sticky, overly phenolic, lots of diacetyl. It's not entirely undrinkable, so a bit like the Lithuanian farmhouse stuff that way, but really, it's a mess.
