Pounder from Appalachian. Fridge sleep, pint glass @home. Orange-amber tea pour, just a bit jellied. Creamy, tall head. Open, tea & dry biscuit, mildly astringent, herbal nose. Taste is softly biscuit sweet, deeply malted for a second with tea smoke, then turns very astringent with an Aspirin & herbal bite that lingers & leans into the acidity. Weak carb & a slight body. Wanted something crisper & less harsh.
