Terrapin Beer Company T-Time

Aroma: “Big lemon and citrus notes, some herbal tea notes, and a really nice wheat character. A nice blend of sweetness with some tartness and complexity.”

Flavor: “Really interesting flavor. After the aroma, one might expect this to be a citrus/lemon bomb, but it has some interesting herbal notes to balance the tartness of the lemon and tartness. It’s really dry in the finish, but you get this nice residual sweetness from the malt that allows the tartness and citrus to linger. It tastes like lemon herbal tea, and the flavors balanced well together. Not too sweet, not too tart.”

Overall: “Fun beer! The lemon notes are well done, and the underlying Berliner weisse comes through with some grainy notes and a tart Lacto that isn't overpowering. The lemon brightens the whole thing up. The aroma really delivers on the citrus whereas the flavor provides this nice herbal character that cuts through the tartness. It is delicate, light, and refreshing with some flavors that worked well together. Easy drinker for a hot day.”
