Dashing through a sweetshop of fun, bright and easy flavours, tethered to maturity by a light background funk. Herbal hoppiness and hints of grapefruit further ground each sip.
This BA mixed fermentation beer used in-barrel-fermentation on a culture entirely new to us. Korean Nuruk added a new energy, and curiously bright flavour profile to our approach to modern BA beer.

Panda thanks to Cloin. Clear gold beer, no head. Light palate, mildly dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Acetic sourness, some ripe lemon. Cooling pine. Mild dried fruits. Semi dry finish. Starting to make the back of my throat itch. Tasty but for me, not quaffable in any quantity.
