On tap at the brewery

This is a slightly murky looking beer and amber colored. There's a white head that has some lacing on the glass.
The aroma had a full on tea hit to my nose. I also get some hints of caramel.
The flavor is full on earl Grey tea. Thus flavor just lingers throughout the profile. I get a peppery flavor that adds to the tea. The finish has a nice bitterness.
The bitterness has a nice feeling. The body is decent and full feeling..
I an a fan of this beer with tea added.

On-tap at the brewery housed in the building that used to house the Perkins where Prince would frequently order pancakes at 4am (no joke!)

Great looking beer; opaque with a ruby-brown-orange color that I can't describe otherwise, it's unique to this beer. It smells amazing: like a tasty lemon infusion was added 50-50 with a premium quality rye IPA. I am not a huge fan of tea in general, but I do enjoy a cup of Earl Grey occasionally, so it's good that I taste the tea here - most of these type of beers you don't really taste the tea and here it's center-stage. This stuff drinks down way easy while having an impressive depth of flavor that goes past "tea dumped into a hoppy ale". Savory and hoppy in flavor, and most notably, unique

I've never tasted a beer like this. They did something right because this is the best tea-infused beer I've ever had
