New brewery (breweries, I guess, since it’s apparently a collab?) to me – as in, not only have never tried, but never heard of. The label says it’s hopped with HBC 586, Simcoe, and Cashmere. I think Cashmere dominates, with its slightly herbal mix of melon and citrus, but that’s not to say it isn’t a decently balanced blend. But, it doesn’t go much further than decent. (15/20)
This will be my 5,778th unique Untappd check-in.
