Tasted on 2/1/2016 by anjo
Notes:
AROMA
Malt and mineral, bready, a bit of the banana clove thing, not much with alcohol / sweetness / acidity
APPEARANCE
Caramel color, hazy but can see through the glass, little bit of head but dissipates quickly
FLAVOR
Undertones of butyric acid, possibly diacetyl, vegetal, dirty water, carbonation fleeting, body is okay, a little warmth from alcohol, flat on the finish, rough around the edges
MOUTHFEEL
Not a great balance, mild bitterness, alcohol is okay, present acidity but not overwhelming
OVERALL
Needs some work.
