Sunset-coloured (orangey-amber) slightly sweet, malty palate with dry lemon-tea finish. Beer made with addition of Black tea leaves and lemon in aging tank. Very smooth and quenching; unfiltered.

Thanks to bpk59 for sharing.

A - Poured into a standard pint glass a nice crystal clear tea hue with a thin head that fades to leave light wisps.

S - Aromas of little lemon very light tea notes.

T - Taste is similar to the nose, very light lemons, faint herbal tea notes. Very soft and subtle tea flavours.

M - Mouthfeel is lightly carbonated, thin, bit watery.

O - Overall this was a decent brew, interesting tea notes. In the right environment this would be solid.

I was disappointed with this one. I was expecting "more". More tea, more lemon, more pop overall from the pint. It is subtle, yet after 2 I was not wanting a 3rd. A good concept, maybe they will improve on it ?
