Exuberant, lightly yellow-coloured head, leaving rings of lace over hazy yellow-orange beer with mossy and amber reflections, faraminously carbonated. Malt and vegetable/greenery nose, bit spicy in the finish. Spicy-(black)peppery flavour, with oak, oxydized malts and again unidentifyable greenery - no doubt the nettles. Extremely lively carbonated, bit buttery feel amongst all the spritziness. Medium bodied. Meaty esters in the aftertaste, warmed up a bit. Oxydized notes (for a beer, given good for another 2 years) are annoying. Some people might decide this beer is fizzy... I would wish more small, artisanal brewers would try to excert a little more control over what they’re doing.
