Gruit ales, a brewing style popular before the use of hops, use a mixture of herbs to impart bitterness and flavor. The protagonist of this particular gruit ale is Cistus Creticus, hand gathered at the peak of blooming to extract its intense character. The resulting brew boasts a dry, intense flavor profile with notes of resin, herbs and lemon, culminating in a satisfyingly bitter aftertaste. The ale's hay yellow to golden hue complements it's funky yeasty aroma, underscored by interesting herbal and resiny notes. With light body and medium carbonation, every sip of this resiny herbal tea will tantalize your taste buds, leaving you craving for more!
