Pale amber, bright. Thin head. Big, complex herbal aroma. You look at the list of ingredients and pick one out each time, but it's always a different one. Also, today I learned that wild bergamot is a member of the mint family and not related to the bergamot orange from Earl Grey tea. Tart, massively herbal, very expressive. This is a herbal cluster...balanced but huge, and as with on the nose you get a different herb with each sip. The acidity is lactic and sharp...not the funkadelic nature of Two Druids, aka the best gruit ever, but it's still impressive. I know they kind of always have a gruit on, and that makes me happy.
