500mL bottle with coding on the upper neck, but nothing I can make out a date from. Fresh from the brewery cooler, drunk 7/22/25.
Clear, but becoming lightly hazy as more of the unfiltered sediment is added. Golden-bronze. Small, moderately well-retained, white head.
Bright, vivacious nose of intense apple, pear and black pepper. Yeast and hops with clean water and crackery grains. Crisp, peppery finish alive with lovely yeast and more, fresh, herbs, pepper and fresh cut grass.
Chewy, ample malts with both soft dough and crusty cracker. Some dainty honey but drying out nicely on the yeast finish. Apple, pear and such, just as it should be. A little less given to the hops in flavor, with low bitterness. Clean, crisp, refreshing and balanced.
