This sour farmhouse beer was brewed without hops. Made with grain from Sugar Creek Malt, bittered and flavored with turmeric from our garden and wild-harvested nettle, and fermented with our wild house mixed culture.

Sunset orange, slight haze, ample foam that dwindles away in time. Aroma is earthy and mysterious, mild acidity, carrot and herbal roots.

Tart and crisp with a moderate pucker, lemon grapefruit citrus, earthy root vegetables like carrots and beets, in a pleasant sense. Finishes dry with a hint of the turmeric root in the aftertaste. Light to medium body with supportive carbonation.

Overall this was really nice and reminded me of a few of their more successful beers, Spring Tonic and Roots. Also D9 Systema Naturae.
