Smells pretty bad, like a cough medicine with a booze, glue, woody notes. Taste is along the same lines, quite bitter and very sweet as well. NOT very nicely done and NOT balanced.

On tap at Lost Cause - Bay Park, pours hazy pale golden, no head. Aroma is quite intense and confusing, with plenty of anise, fennel, sage and who know what else. Flavour is extremely spicy, with intense fennel, anise, sage, honey and booze. Extremely spicy, and feels dry despite the residual sugars. Not a great idea and the execution doesn't win me over. This doesn't work for me.
