Lots of swirling lace. Looks outstanding, just gorgeous. Modest nose of CO2, yeast, chalk, and sour milk. Body’s a little bit on the watery side of medium, very little carb. Light mid-palate with some very restrained chocolate notes, chalk, sour milk, and a little tiny bit of roast. No finish. This one doesn’t work too hard to impress you. CP (124), USA
