Man Skirt Brewing

DATE: April 22, 2022... OCCASION: picking back up with Better Call Saul as the break ends... GLASSWARE: Wychwood pint... this is a redux, having had--and enjoyed--this with Jer last Easter Saturday... this pours a dark chestnut brown body featuring a slow stream of tiny bubbles running upward... its head is a creamy, ochre smear that laces in flames along the glass's rim.... a looker, indeed... German Saaz and noble hops make a dank, pine aroma that couples nicely with toasted malts that present a woody, grainy heartiness that evokes springtime... this sips with a clean swiftness that befits its 5% ABV--an all-day beer that has enough mouthfeel to be substantial... a bit of buzz early and a pleasant, smooth finish--appropriate for its style... the flavor profile is pretty much what its aroma promised--pine, wood, nut, toasted bread malts, butterscotch and caramel... a fantastic meld of flavor and drinkability--among my favorites from Man Skirt... although this is in the RETIRED section, it indeed is alive and on draught, and I suggest if you are in the area, it is a nice accompaniment to the season if you are tired of bocks and lagers...
