Can you coin an acronym?). It was the only beer I had two of and weirdly it tasted quite different the second time.<br /><br />Had the first with microgirl and, while I got mostly banana, she got mostly clove. Second time, drinking it with my wife, the clove jumped out and smacked me in the face.<br /><br />Incidentally, they used a Saison yeast which woke up and started fermenting again in the kegs, causing over-pressurisation. Very odd to see kegs being vented.Séan Billingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10347677720588826886noreply@blogger.com
