Sample at the taproom. This beer pours a hazy golden color with a medium white head that diminishes steadily to a wispy film. Short strings of lacing. Aroma of funky yeast, dark fruit and malt. Light to medium body with flavors of tart plums, floral yeast and doughy malt. The finish is moderately tart and vinous with a plum aftertaste. Pretty good all around, and RIP George Michael.
