Bayberry draught, 8/12/23. Clear, lemon-golden. Medium-sized, white head, slowly fades to cover. Tons of mineral, very woody, though not sharp or scratchy. Bright herbal finish, clean, hints of cracker and honey from the malt. Soft, malty, dry, woody, light pepper, herbs, biscuit and hints of vanilla on the finish. Peppery, but not acidic hippiness throughout is fantastic. Somehow incredibly well-malted for just 3.5%. Maybe oak adds tannic structure? Whatever the case, this is impressively well-made. No husky malt, no overdone oak...no thinning. Clean.
