Bottle from me Fellowship of Beer subscription. Aroma is fruity, citrusy. hedgerow (or fragrant bog). Underlying earthiness. Clear amber gold. Thin translucent white is short-lived. Different elements going down in terms of flavour. A bitter and sour herb and citrus streak. Prickly. Light fruity sweetness in the mix, moreso into the finish. Underlying malts. Herbspicy. Medicinal in a positive way. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Soft carbonation. Long dry astringent finish. Pleasant bitter yet fruity stuff.
