Brewery draught, 7/29/24. Chill-hazed bronze-maize. Small, white head, slowly clumps edges. Is that juniper? I guess. It's tart and/or acidic. Some biscuity-grains, maybe lightly woody. Rustic funk. Oh yeah that's softer and maltier than expected with a round, bright, juniper-like playfulness free from its usual astringency. Doughy, soft malts seem to-style and there's a funky undercurrent. Lightly tart but very malty. Juicy almost.

Draft at anniversary party with half dozen oysters. Amber golden touch to tell in a stein. Nose is banana bread and some herbal notes. Tastes of same sweet banana bread, light juniper, some steel, fruit punch. Like most American sahti’s not truly authentic but this grabs the character and infuses with cleanliness of a lager. Nice take.
