12 oz single from Grassroots, Jacksonville, FL, USA.

Quite a surprising orange color on the pour with very little head. The beer produces a very light film on the surface of the beer and no lace. It looks a little flat, but actually isn’t once one tastes it.

Extremely malty and musty nose. Lots of organic hay and and some degree of mustiness as well.

The nose goes into the taste with a yeast based acidity being quite strong. Fruit notes peek through somewhat, but this a German based malt bomb without too much else going on for me. Perhaps a little unfair as there is a tiny hop bite on the back end. Alcohol very well hidden.

Lively mouthfeel (at times even verging on prickly), the beer is interesting enough to make the beer something that I remember.

Tasty, typically German and interesting enough to bring me back for more.
