Tavour: pours amber with off white head. Aroma is caramel and grain. Taste is sweet. Low bitterness. Very much on the heavily malted side of things.

14 September 2022. At Old Irving Brewing, Chicago. Shared with the lovely Anke!

Hazy copper, thin, off-white head. Aroma of biscuit, peanut, hard toffee, dried plum, red apple. Taste has sweet plum & apple peel in a biscuity, toffee-malty body. Grassy, bit herbal hoppy finish, somewhat dry-yeasty with a peanut hint. Light to medium body, slick texture, average carbonation. Solid.
