Hazy, iced tea, murky pour at Sovereign. Lemon honey nose, earth, old ale. Obvious lemon black tea, tannic English cider, sweet n sour floral, backdrop of watermelon & lemon sorbet. Best thing I've had all night.

Canned 11/19/24, drunk 1/9/25.
Clear blonde-golden. Large, white head settles slowly to cover.
Lovely aged character shows nothing aggressive or tacky here. Just a speck of light clove with Oxbow's signature heavily basement-esque and mineralesque yeast. A bit of white pepper and lots of rich, honey-like malt. Doesn't smell too light, despite its size.
Softly malty but with tight carbonation. Excellent hopping providing balancing bitterness but still tastefully-done. Bit of bread and a bit of lime on the finish, as Ernest always complained about. I taste it, but it doesn't detract for me. Clean with lots of mineral, lots of malt and great texture and intensity of flavor for its size.

On tap at Craft & Carry UWS, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma has toasted bready malts, toasted nuts, and a touch of roast. Flavour is very roasted, with lots of roasted malt, toasted nuts, and bready malt. Very roasted and deep for a dunkel. Very good.

On tap at Augur�s Well, pours a deep dark red with a small beige head. Aroma has oak, wild bugs, and dry grape juice. Flavour is full of dry oak, wild bugginess, and gentle grape skins. Dry, musty, and lightly vinous. A bit muffled but pretty well-constructed. Solid.

On tap at Proletariat, pours a cloudy orange with a small white head. Aroma has bright, dry apricots, wild bugs, hay, and some light acidity. Flavour is dry and gently acidic, with tons of juicy, dry apricot, hay, and finishing citrusy. Nice use of the apricot without being too acidic. Excellent.

Grapefruit bretta. Golden pour with decent soap bubbles. Light tart finish. Pleasant, easy drinking beer from reliable saison factory.

Single from Churchkey. Pint glass at home. Hazy honey gold pour. Strong, off-white, lumpy head. Herbal, spiced, floral, very Wit-like nose. Bittersweet herbal, grape ale, wax, chewy grain, lingering clove. Fuzzy, waxy, yeasty texture, a bit of heat. Just a little too heavy. Good-ish.
