Tasting Notes (1)

Umich

Tasted on 11/19/2019 by Umich

Notes:

For the first few weeks, it tasted like plants. I think the dry hop was way too long. Seven weeks after kegging, it is now crisp, clean, and chuggable. Excellent frothy foam, good lacing. Noble hop aroma and taste. A beer flavored beer.
