A second homebrew of the Small Beer series. This time the flavor is supposed to come from sea-buckthorn leaf. Relatively cloudy, deep amber is the appearance. Oppressed carbonation, just like it was in the previous Small Beer. A weak lacing is born but, unfortunately, its life proves to be short. The scent is interesting, quite fruity actually. Very difficult to specify. Yellow berries. Sea-buckthorn. Or distant cloudberry. Maybe green gooseberry? And wheat. There's no wheat in the maltbase though. The tastebuds like the sourish fruity cocktail. It's also somewhat floral, now that I realize it. Sea-buckthorn? Maybe. The intensive floral sphere offers something like lady's mantle: lemon zest and pith, green tea, grass, a suggestion of apricot. The supportive foundation is a mix of wheat bread and cracker. The body is thin. Surprising because it's recognizably smaller than that of the large-flowered hemp-nettle edition, yet, the brew itself is the same in these both. One of those inexplicable elements of the beer world? The sensation left in the mouth is thin, floral, herbal, zesty and slightly dry. Difficult to rate — I like the fact that the sea-buckthorn leaf can be spotted, even if remotely. On the other hand, the grassy plus floral side reduces the attractiveness of the beer.
