Sample at the Roost is a lightly murky deep brown with some sticky off white head. Nose has malt and some treacle, earthy, some woodsy notes and something a bit medicinal. I get more witchhazel than spruce but I wouldn't lose my shirt over it, malt and leaves and light brown bread. Finish is a touch distracting. The herbs are a bit over done. 6 4 6 3 11

Tapped draught, 2/13/24. Pale brass. Clear, small, white head, modest retention. Love their house culture. Rich yoghurt, plentiful spicy pepper. Light hop in there adding fresh, dill-tinged herb. Rustic grains, nothing crude on the phenol/ester. Soft, malty, lots of honey, cracker, vanilla and mild yellow fruit. White pepper galore with fresh herbal hops and light freshly cut grass. Mellow yellow fruits lingering. Certainly not gonna confuse this with Dupont or Blaugies, but it's not Americanized either. Quite unique.

500mL bottle, undated as far as I can tell, drunk 2/2/24. Clear, deep bronze. No head, fizzling out immediately. Caramelized ginger with lemony herbal notes and more chicory and caramel on the finish. Some specks of lactic acidity but somewhat light on the culture. Clean. Malty, tart, ginger-forward but not dominated. Lots of chicory character. Mixed culture is round, mellow, pleasingly tart. Caramel and malt sugars abound creating a great balance. Ginger is lovely. Upped my score by the end of the bottle. The flavors are really well-done, especially for its size.
