500 mL bottle. This is a weird one. Can't put my finger on it, though. Deep orange body. Ample white head. Smell is something savory. It's a recognizable food smell, but I don't know what it is. The spelt lends a strange grain aroma. Lots of wine and acetic acid. Tomato? Taste doesn't have that strangeness. Tart up front. Acetic, but not overwhelming. You can taste the spelt, but it isn't exaggerated as it is in the aroma. Wine flavor in the back end. Medium body with a strong sourness. There's something in the nose that makes this a very strange beer. The taste is less abrasive and odd, but doesn't totally redeem it.
