April 27 2019 at the brewer. Billing this as Bavarian Ale. With strong melon component.
a) All good, darker golden, plenty of creamy white head and lace.
s) Melon first, along with grain, hop, kind of a German hop purebred.
Ripening late season apples, hay, earth, fallen leaves, the sea, the fall beach.
t) Follows the smell, with dankness, not unlike Uflaffen,
f) sticky/ chalky. Clean, cidery, cleansing finish. Great food beer.
o) One of their best.

I tried 8 of their beers in flights and settled on this one to take home with us. Great beer, great artisan brewer. Much to be said of a small batch, local, herbal, local ingredient, over infused craft brewer. A true confectioner, gardener and flower shop. Bravo.

Overall, this brewer packs its small batches with herbs, which are mostly native to Shelter Island, and seasonal. Fantastic tea-like brews to be found here along with good spirits, food, and craft.

Proud to be 1st reviewer of this brew and 2d of this wonderful place.
