Draft at Tap and Mallet. Pours yellow with a thin white head. Aroma is lightly sweet, almost tart, with notes of lemon and pine. Light body. Flavor is like a wet-nap, lemon, pine, perfume. Awful. That’s supposed to be juniper berry? I don’t think so.

Bottle. [thank you, Yespr]
Pours hazy golden yellow with a big, frothy white head. Aroma is heavy lavender, very flowery and perfume-like. Okay mouthfeel. Flavour continues the lavender theme - just far too exaggerated. Lightly sweet with a touch of lime behind the lavender.

33 cL bottle. Pours hazy yellow with a lasting white head. Citric and lavender aroma. Flavour is perfumed and medium sweet. Lime note in addition. Light spice note following. Lavender soapy flavour into the finish.

Bottle from Windy City. Hazy yellowish in color upon pouring. Aroma is like that of a ginger lemonade. Spiced lemon flavors. This doesn’t really remind me of gin. More like a hard lemonade/beer concoction. Maybe a strong radler. Interesting anyway.
