Mikkeller ApS

On tap at churchville inn. 5oz.

Look: thick-ish apple juice, no head.

AROMA: lots of deciduous fruit, apple, pear, grape. Mild yeast, sweet smelling.

TASTE: sweet and sour grape, oak gives it almost a chardonnay type of taste but not so much that you feel like a house bitch of orange county.

FEEL: sharpness makes up for lack of carbonation...gives it a dry bite.

Interesting, but not my cup of tea.
