Hazy golden beer with a light hoppy, herbal aroma. The rosemary is there and up front in the taste, on top of a sweet fruity quality, a little grass. Lingering dry, floral, herby backtaste. Wouldn't rush back for a second but it's tasty and interesting.

Pours like engine oil with a small frothy tan head. Booze and cherries on the nose, really smooth, tastes like port with added Black Forest gateau.
