What Our Editors Thought
Peach blossom, azalea, and other bold floral notes on the nose. The sip swirls bready malt sweetness with those floral aromatics, drying it out with light herbal bitterness in the swallow. Flavorful and rustic. Cleanly expressed.
What Our Panel Thought
Inviting nose: subtle floral notes with soft, candy-like sweetness. On the palate, layered malt sweetness with light fruit, fig, jasmine tea, maybe cotton candy. Yet the finish is crisp, with grassy-spicy hop notes. Complex, balanced, enjoyable.
What the Brewers Say
A celebration of East Coast craft maltsters. A song to these unsung heroes responsible for the foundation of craft beer.
