Soft with hay, grass and sourdough upfront turning to lemon/lime (?!) in the medium length finish. 7/4/6/4/13 = 3.4

Can pour into nonic pint glass from Redstone Liquors, Stoneham. Appearance is hazy dark, dark brown (mahogany with light source directly behind) with tons of sparkle, finger-width foamy light brown head with poor retention and no lacing. Aroma is toasted malt, roasted coffee, lactose, dead leaves and milder baker's chocolate. Taste is toasted malts and lactose with spare coffee and chocolate; late nuts. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with a somewhat watery texture, soft carbonation with late lively kick and finish as taste. Overall, as noted previously, pretty amazing for 3.3%. That's only notable in the texture as it a bit watery but good in its own right and quite impressive for such a low ABV.

On tap at Birreria Volo, pours a deep dark amber with a small beige head. Aroma brings out bready malt, some herbaceous notes, and a hint of toasted caramel. Flavour is pretty much identical, with lots of bready malt and a herbaceous quality. This doesn't stack up to Czech polotmavys, but it's nice to see the ambition. Okay.
