Tap @ Black Bottle. Pours a hazy yellow appearance with a white head. Big zesty lemon, very floral, spicy yeasty aroma that really tickles my tongue. Fairly dry, grassy, very floral, a bit boozy, yeasty, lemon, vanilla flavor with a very dry finish. I’m a bit conflicted but it is a bit over the top.

Tap at Black Bottle - mostly clear light gold - nose of candi sugar and honey, with light herb and wildflower notes - flavor is.surprisingly sweet for the abv, but there is a fair amount of toasted grain and dry mineral to balance - some.odd starchy notes late - bready yeast - this one is okay, but a bit off.
