Commercial Description:
Dragonmead uses heather tips imported from Scotland to create this unusual brew. Its malty sweet aroma does not disappoint. Chocolate Malt imparts a great deal of the flavor of this beer but does not over-power the finish, which is defined by the powdery dryness of the heather. All in all, a malty brew with a very clean finish. ABV 5.7%

On tap at Dragonmead. Deep red-brown body, thin buff head. Light potpourri aroma. Earthy, herbal body with sweet toasts and brown sugar, quite perfumey and floral. Interesting.

On tap at brewery: Ruby/copper in color with a mostly sustaining tan head. aromas are floral herb gardens, spice, and salt/soy notes. Flavor is the floral heather mixed with deadened weak hops, also had some salt hints which fade as the beer drains. Finishes with all water and finishes quickly.

Draft... Hazy, caramel-colored ale with a small, creamy, off-white head. Good retention. The lightly floral aroma and subtle, malty flavor are a bit nondescript, but that’s fairly consistent with the style. Hints of butterscotch, herbs and white wine. Light-bodied with moderate carbonation. Short, crisp, vineous finish. A subtle, difficult style to master. Dm’s done a pretty nice job.
