Member Ratings and Notes

Sku

The nose on this is malt and fruit juice with some light peat. The palate begins with a pure, sweet, malty flavor with some grass then some slight sherry. Midpalate the peat sets in. For a fairly light peating level, the peat is noticeable throughout, though it doesn't dominate. Malt is the key characteristic here. It's not an overly complex malt, but not an unpleasant one either. A good, light drinker.

Chris

N: Bright and sharp, dry white wine, whiffs of apple pie, bread, flowers, and lemon.
P: Initially punchy and organic, but gets rather weak / watery once you get about halfway down the glass.
F: Sweet lemon water.
Starts out well but the more interesting aspects fade too quickly.

Adam

Cotton candy nose, with cheap bubble gum (like baseball card sticks), musty sourdough, and smoke wisps.

Palate is sweetish, with honey, cider hints, vanilla. Finish adds white wine... a somewhat spoiled type of white wine... with smoke and antiseptic hints.

Easy to drink and pleasing enough, I'd be happy to find a bottle of this being poured at any party.
