12oz can served in a snulip. Can is dated April '23.

Pours a slightly hazy peach-amber color with a very small head that dissipates quickly and leaves a thin ring of fine head. Smell is very tart, slight white wine and oak, and lots of peach / stonefruit.

Taste is very tart, lots of peach, both over- and under-ripe. Peach skin, some chardonnay butteriness, a little bit of pineapple juice.

Mouthfeel is dry and light. Overall, pretty good.

Canned April 2023

I quite enjoyed the first Single Hill beer I had (a Stout that Snaotheus sent in this same LIF box) so I have faith in this brewery so far. This is quite the style change up fron the last one, so let’s see if they can do Wild correctly

Pours a cloudy pale orange with a finger of white head that quickly fades to a ring and leaves minimal lacing

The nose is very sharp, and actually reminding me of the Sournova series from Almanac. I’m picking up on aromas of lemon yogurt, dried apricot, underripe peach, tannic white wine, sharp oak, stone, and wet hay

Things are even sharper in taste which may be off putting to some, but I still dig it. On the front end of the sip I’m tasting lemon juice, peach yogurt, tannic white wine, stone, sharp oak, wet hay, apple cider vinegar, and light leather. The swallow brings notes of lemon yogurt, dried apricot, earthy wheat, apple cider vinegar, wildflower honey, underripe peach, sharp oak, and tannic white wine

A medium body pairs with moderate carbonation, resulting in a sharp beer. Finishes slightly sticky but geta washed away by the tartness quickly

Oh yeah, this is damn good. It’s quite acidic but I’m all about it
