16oz can. Quite an intense, odd aroma, presumably from the tea. Fully dominated by the tea and Coriander, really takes the style in an herbal, kind of gross direction. Commendable to try something new, but the end product here is not enjoyable at all.

16oz can. Pretty enjoyable beer, certainly unique. Bright hop tone. Rich, grainy malts. Pleasant mixed fermentation yeast(?). Highly sessionable, but has a lot of character too. Almost a touch of barky rye. Good.

Tap at Sundial. Pretzely but farty like their other stuff. Well attenuated, but not great flavor or true to style. Disappointing.

Tap at Sundial. A little bit of a mess of a beer. Fecal tones. Certainly farmhouse but not good at all.

Tap at Sundial. Kind of too earthy. Deep honey. Bright body. Not all the way there.

Tap at Sundial. Really nice earthy plum tone. Zesty and light, some serious barnyard tone. Light acidity. At times too earthy but still good.

Tap at Sundial. Booming funky aroma. Super delicate body. Lots of flavor. Easy drinking. Really good stuff. Oaky, mellow sour, clean, nice.

16oz can. Happy to see someone going after this variation of the style. Bright, a little bready for the style, lacks that nice crispness with almost a Keller feel if I went in blind. Still quite enjoyable, has some nice subtleties. Just isn't as dry as I would like in the style....a few iterations later and it has gotten a little drier. Aroma needs some work but otherwise solid offering.
