What Our Editors Thought
“Herbal tea pushes through the aroma with some kiwi and starfruit. Tropical fruit in the sip—lychee, guava—with a lightly spicy herbal edge.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Really complex aroma with hints of lavender, linalool, and key-lime pie; a vinegar hint leans toward savory. Light-bodied, effervescent, with a balanced sourness; floral, earthy, citrusy. Quite acid-forward for a beer this light and bone-dry.”
What the Brewers Say
“Aged in an oak puncheon with our foraged mixed culture. Rested on chamomile, chrysanthemum, and oolong tea.”
