- Dry, plenty of dark fruit, restrained bitterness. Refreshing and intense.
I'm a 16 days out (since bottling) on a beer that I'm meant "to guard", but I had to try one. This is absolutely going to comps! Really just awesome right now...dry, but still very smooth on the mouthfeel, with a great malt flavor which comes across as richness, despite the 1.007 FG. I'm excited to see where this one goes in the next few years.
