Tastes of honey dew, grapefruit, plastic, resin, sweet simple syrup. Astringent and sweet. Odd aftertaste. Slightly hot from hooch. Whatever I’m on cloud nine after that hit.

Draft at 5 n Dime in Bmore. Aroma is watery brown malts with earthy soil and light tobacco. Flavor has more watery malts with light caramel. Even a bit of sourness, just a hint at the end. Low bitterness. Overall, this seems like a regular brown overextending itself. Everything feels a bit forced. I'd like less watery character and more defined malt character.
