Tasting Notes

First Tasted at Meeting No. 85 in October 2019
 •  3.0

Minty tea tree oil zest bomb nose, licorice. All over the place and making my mouth slightly numb. Hot, definitely young. U-neeek.

 •  3.0

Like a piece of art that doesn't speak to me at all but that earns my respect for the artist because of the uniqueness of the expression. Powerful smell of sour washrag smothered in perfume from a bygone generation.

 •  2.5

On the nose: perfume, wet dank hops. Sweet without being sweet. Tea tree. Soap. So much soap.
