Homebrew time! This is one of the Small Beer series. Flavored with blossoms of a flower called Heart's Ease. Yes, it's edible 😅
The beer looks cloudy copper. The carbonation is, understandably, still timid as it will develop bolder over time. Some of my beers have developed overcarbonated during a couple of years, for example, so that the foam erupts uncontrollably from the bottle. I still can't make beers whose carbonation level would remain constant over a longer period of time. The emerging lacing is off-white and soapy, remains at a few millimeters only.
The scent is almost zero. A bit of cookie, malt and faint cacao nibs. A floral hint lingers somewhere in the shadows.
The taste is marginally grassy, probably because of Tettnanger hops. The other components include a small amendment of malt, dried apricot and bread. Nothing that would resemble a flower. Pity.
The body is thin. Not surprising at 2.4 %. Ends unchanged. Feels thin, slightly crisp, moderately dry and drying. But not floral tastewise, scentwise yes. Okay for a sauna refreshment but otherwise too characterless.
