Impression: This brewery was closed for a few years but has reopened in a limited capacity. Since its pub is only open for events, I was happy when a friend picking some beer up there offered to get me one as well. It’s a low carbonation affair so not a profuse head but a nice grainy nose. The balanced palate has a fruity quality to go with the grain and the hops, while in the background, are present from start to the semi-dry semi-bitter finish. Quite nice. Too bad the pub is is no longer operating.
Next beer or back to the beer list.
