22 oz bottle from Green’s on Ponce, Atlanta, GA, USA.
Delighted to see one of my favorite styles produced by a brewer that usually does a very solid job across the board. Bottle sports the usual, new GD artwork and red foil on the neck – nice.
Noisy pour (good sign), and a nice head with lace is produced. A murky, mid-brown pour is the result that is not very attractive but standard for the style.
It’s very straightforward in terms of the nose and the taste. We get all the standard clove and banana notes and plenty of sweetness that ends with a touch of bitterness in the finish. Not QUITE there in terms of depth and mouthfeel (a bit light), but outside of that it’s a good example of the style.
Drinkable but I would like a little more creamy depth, but outside of that it does a nice job.
