Now, I do declare, that this is one heck of a deeeelicious sweet tea inspired beer. It's straight from hog heaven! If I'm not mistaken, the gents and belles over at that Pipeworks and that Lillie's Q BBQ restaurant brewed an ale with lemon, wildflower honey, and earl grey tea. It'll make you squeal like a piggy with deeeeeeelight.

Bottled fall 2014; drank 10/11/14 @ the Yarchives.
Murky ruby red hue.
Off-white head; frothy, tree-rung lace.
Mild strawberry & caramel nose.
A dry fruitiness up front, with flavors of strawberry, raspberry & hints of caramel; a pleasant, if tame, iced tea finish.
Quite quaffable.

Pours light brown with a slight golden haze and light ruby hue. Head is one finger off white and has great retention. Smell has aromas of tea and lemonade similar to an Arnold Palmer with some spices on the end with aromas of earl grey tea, giving it more of a wit characteristic. Very interesting aroma. Taste has some sweet malt forward along with a hefty black tea presence and a tang of lemon. Mouthfeel is sweet sticky and somewhat dry from the tea.
