Draught at the brewery, 6/5/21.
Clear, caramel-amber with light ruby highlights and a large, white head showing moderate-to-low retention.
Extremely fruity in the nose (from the yeast), like wildly so. Hints of bread and very light caramel back this, while light mineral lingers on the end. No alcohol or flaw, per se, though it's just a bit doughy/yeasty and seems like it could use maybe a bit more time to sit in the cask. Tough to say though.
Fruity as all hell, strawberry, raspberry, plum and apple with a pinch of acidity even, while light caramel and toast linger on the finish. Mineral-rich and fruity with a light, watery style as one expects for the gravity/style. Maybe a bit of a chore to finish on account of the massive yeastiness, but it's not bad. In pretty good shape with high clarity and a decent head.
