Sweet Leif is a Bière de Garde infused with Chinese Sencha Green Tea. The beer pours deep gold with aromas of earthy spice and fruit esters. Flavors of grass, toasted malt and slightly sweet caramel are immediately present, augmented by a smooth, medium body and a dry finish. You will love Sweet Leif though it can’t hear you.

Pours a deep amber/gold with a grassy nose. The tea notes are very present and add to the bitterness of this beer. Mouthfeel is akin to a chilled green tea, with smooth drinkability.
