I must admit to struggling as to how to rate this beer. I love South Shore’s Nut Brown so was excited to see this at my grocer. Im not a huge fan of cream ales so my review could be skewed by my own bias. Still, it was a good, yet odd taste. I didnt mind it and had another but I wasnt ready to have more. You can taste some herbal notes but I wouldnt say i liked that. Crisp beer but a tad flat tasting. Id go back to the nut brown before this.

Pours a bright, hazy gold colour. Smells light, earthy hops, with a hint of sweet malt. Tastes light, crisp, slightly fruity, earthy hops, with a clean finish. Not much to it, but crisp and refreshing.

A little to much lavender in the brew
