Reviewed from notes.
This was poured into a pint glass at the brewery.
The appearance was a hazy golden burnt orange to ruddy amber color with a slim finger’s worth of white foamy head that dissipated super quickly.
The smell had a weird sweet to spicy blueberry - esque to weird maybe coriander spice to it.
The taste was mainly sweet to grainy spicy but in a weird sort of way.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a fairly decent sessionability about it. The carbonation was somewhat subdued but also carried a decent smoothness to it.
Overall, uh...what exactly is this supposed to be? I have no clue...it just kinda seems all over the place.
