16 ounce tulip at the brewery - hazy orange beer - nose is bready malt, moderate peppery phenols, light esters, some ginger - flavor is a little heavy on the toasty maltiness than I typically like in the style - kinda bready and heavy, so the yeast character doesn’t pop as much, and there is surprising leafy hop flavor - some white pepper, light fruitiness, some bubblegum esters emerge as it warms - just so heavy on the malt character, and a little husky on the back end.
