5.1
Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 5 | Flavor - 5 | Texture - 4 | Overall - 4.5

At the brewery, small sample
Beautiful hazy red amber color with small head. The aroma is not convincing, chemicals, maybe phenol. Some malt flavor, caramel, lightly bready, but again some chemical and vegetable presence, fermentation to be tuned maybe. The final is rather weak.

On tap at Black Kettle, pours a clear orange amber with a small white head. Aroma brings out grapefruit and weird vegetal notes. Flavour is similar, bringing out weird vegetal notes, grapefruit and candied sugar. The vegetal notes are way too prominent, indicating some unintended off-flavours. Needs some work.
