Morganton, NC
What Our Editors Thought
“Lavender and rosemary notes offer sweetness and spice. The sip is comforting, familiar malt with a vaguely American Noble-like bitterness.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Moderately bitter citrus in the aroma and flavor with a nice minty, herbal hop aroma. Peppery spice emerges mid-sip. Creamy, almost oat-like body, with peppery spice hop flavors. Lightly soapy with a clean and quick dry finish. The creamy mouthfeel sets it apart. In a rather conservative field, it takes chances and offers something different without losing the context.”
What the Brewers Say
“Dortmunder-style lager bier blended with ancient Appalachian sea salt.”
