Right, so this one’s a light gold in the glass. First sniff and I’m getting grist, a bit of pinewood, and this odd chlorophyll thing – like crushed nettles or mown grass that’s sat a while. There’s a proper pencil eraser note lurking, and something waxy… Barbour grease and a faint whiff of teak oil. Not very sexy, honestly 😅 On the palate, the arrival’s good – sweet pearish and beerish, like a ripe pear dipped in lager. Pears, greengages, and a little salty tang. Strangely made me think of dim sums with that salty plum dip? A bit random. Water kills it – turns the whole thing to vague malty nothing. Neat, it’s malty and very good up front, but then it goes a tad indefinite, just sort of wanders off. Not extremely motivating to pour another, but pleasant enough in a quiet, dusty-workshop sort of way.
