A refreshing and tasty malt. At 40% and chill filtered it is NOT flattering it’s way into the “top affordable malts” and offers too little to fit into the “bottom of the premium malts”. Would love to see this at a better price or at a higher ABV. NOSE: soft dry green apples Fresh herb Wood shop shavings Butterscotch Vanilla ARRIVAL: Syrupy clean white sugar Vanilla ice cream Pear cider DEVELOPMENT: oak (fresh) Lemon essence FINISH: Deep earthy cheese like Camembert Dry Tannins Little white pepper burn Wet popsicle woodyness Way out at the end is a soft spearmint finish Very friendly malt and quite pretty. Sadly the same could be said about many more delicious and affordable singles that didn’t win the popularity contest.
