Thank you Bier Stein for stocking this beer.

A: Very light copper toned with little to no lacing at all.

S: A very distinct aroma of floral and hops, not too overbearing in the nose.

T: I can't say I've ever had a beer with Lavender in it before, so I wasn't really sure what to expect with the taste, but I could really taste the Lavender mixed with some nicy spicy notes. Very good overall taste that is something I could get used to.

M: A smooth beer, very easy to swallow, not too much in the flavor that would kill my tastebuds, but I felt that it was still missing something. Mabye a little higher in the abv would've made this beer a 5.0.

O: A very nice balanced beer, which is something I'm glad I got to try. Congrats to the girl who won this contest. If I was a homebrewer, I would love for the entire country to try what I've made. She is quite the lucky one.
