Canned 7/19, drunk 9/17/24. Clear, peachy-copper-amber. Large, white head, good retention. Mineral, bread and earth with dry herbs and no sign of the tea. At least not jumping out at you. Honey, caramel (light) and soft bread tones support the triple decoction claim here, and it's very malty but never sweet or overdone. Very clean. Very rich maltiness with peachy fruits, gentle bitterness, dry, earthy hops and maybe some tea, though I'd never guess tea. I assume it mostly provides balance here and helps support the earthy, herbal, bitter character. Malts are somewhat dense though drying out fairly well on the finish. Caramel, honey, marmalade and light vanilla. So soft and supple on the palate. No alcohol or overly bready/toasty notes. Yeah, I'm a fan. Will certainly get more from these guys.

Can from Tavour. Pours clear light amber with a moderate creamy white head. Aroma of amber malt and some black tea notes. Med body or so. Flavor is the aroma. There's some prickle/spice/pepper aspects. Guess could be from the tea. Dry, something stands in for hop bitterness. Gets black tea astringency.

Golden amber with a white head that vanishes quickly. Malty aroma. Taste is balanced malt with some hop and a bit of sweet tea. Full finish

On tap at Wayfinder, pours a clear golden amber with a small white head. Aroma brings out bready malt and a touch of toasted dry caramel. Flavour has some toasted caramel, light fruit salad, and dry bready malt. Nice malt character. Very good.
