Bottle at home in Hackney - sourced from HOTM. Pours mostly clear honey-gold with a modest, foamy white head. Lightly sweet with a bit of throwback acetic twang, lemony bite, subtle funk, white grape, old wood. Medium bodied with fine, massaging carbonation. Pretty clean to finish, nicely rounded, modest citric acidity, balanced sweetness. Good stuff overall.
