Draught at brewery, 4/7/22. A pale, straw-golden beer with a small, white head that clings to the edges. Good clarity. Wow that's something. Heavy minerality and a light Dupont-esque character of honey-pepper. Very clean and bright and highly aromatic with low, but apparent, lemony, lactic acidity. Soft, sumptuous malts are highly supportive but also seem well-attenuated. Lemon and star fruit, quite tart and clean with soft, wheat-like malts and a great attenuation. Tons of flavor and a big burst of fruity acidity that gently decrescendos into a mineral-laden, strongly-lactic finish. Much more acidic than the nose suggests, but not problematically so.
