Row34 draught, 7/14/22. Clear/glassy, amber-caramel. Small, butter-colored head, low retention. Herbal hops and rustic grains with low phenolics and esters. Clean, no alcohol noted. Sweet and sour up front. Is that acetic acid? Some remnant of barrel aging? There's literally no information about this beer. The texture is soft, tannic, with tart notes that aren't punchy making me think this is definitely barrel aged. But in what? Hard to say, though there's a bit of astringency on the very end that reminds of gin. Doesn't seem bourbony, at least not fresh. Probably just standard older generation oak. It's very flavorful, soft, balanced, well-attenuated and malty.
