Scnitt pour at Brighton, 3/21/24. Unfiltered blonde-brass-golden. Small, creamy, white head, moderate-to-low retention. Fresh herbs, cracker and biscuit with a dab of honey. Not super aromatic and there's a touch of sourdough/blandness. Malty up front with a good amount of honey and biscuit through the middle, gaining zesty hop flavor and moderate bitterness. Some light cellar-like, musty-earthiness on the finish. Interesting yeast character with plaster and light dough. More pepper lingering from hop. A bit unusual, albeit more interesting than your average Keller.

Tap at the Brighton pub. Bright, hazy gold with a tall, high head. Lovely herbal hop nose, spicy, lightly citrusy, clean crisp malt. Bready malt flavor, touch of honey. Soft carbonation with a spicy, bitter, dry finish. Probably the best of the style I have had outside of Germany.

Pours slightly hazed gold into a willi. Bright white head with little retention recedes to skim surface. Caramel and hay aromas. Crisp with spicy meadow, hay and dusty grape must front to back. Medium length pith and peel finish.
