On tap at Theodore, pours a clear copper with a medium white head. Aroma is odd -- there's a strange baking spice character upfront, with gentle hops, light metallic notes, and some bugginess. Flavour is much the same, with floral hops, some metallic notes, then those baking spices creep in (vanilla, nutmeg), and finishes lightly tart and buggy. I suppose Cantillon Iris was the inspiration for this, but this is far from that. Not bad, just pretty wonky and doesn't seem on-point. Decent experiment.

Cohesion barley plus primitive funk, what more can you ask for? Crisp but flavor packed upfront, barley juice and funk.
