From cask at the taproom. Laza, konnyen ihato, citrusos-gyantas pale ale, a cask pedig kulon jot tesz neki, ha rajtam mulna a lagereken kivul semelyik sortipusban nem lenne CO amugy.

Tap at the brewery taproom. Opaque golden pour with a white head. It's funky, fruity, the vineous notes are omnipresent, there's a hint of oak as well but the main line is the grapes here. Somehow even the texture of the beer got some wine characteristics, it's kinda creamy similarly to a battonage chardonnay. Nicely done.

Nitro at the brewery taproom. Generally not a fan of American stouts, I firmly believe that a malt forward beer shouldn't be hoppy - looking at you, Am. barleywine - but frankly this was spot on balance-wise. It was moderately but still quite apparently dry and bitter, giving off dark chocolate/cacao powder vibes but partly due to the nitro it was still silky and malty. In theory I shouldn't have liked this one yet I still did.
