The Three Sisters from Tree House Brewing Company (Charlton, United States 🇺🇸)
1 year ago
8.4/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 9 Texture 8 Overall 8.5
Pours a mildly hazy (almost murky) gold-lemon yellow, with mid-sized head. Aroma has a very strong note of sour wheat ester that kind of overpowers everything else (not necessarily a bad thing). Very sour flavor, with some citrus and some wheat and banana esters. Mouthfeel is fairly clean and crisp. This isn't bad.
