On tap at Loyal Legion - Portland, pours a clear copper with a small white head. Aroma has a nice old woody mustiness that pervades: leathery, buggy, oaky, with slight mildew. Flavour is a little sweeter than expected, with some undesirable esters, a little wood, some mustiness, and sweet cereal. Ferment didn’t ferment this out enough. Good attempt for a difficult style, but it needs some work.
