Comments
A smooth, dry barreled maibock that reminds me of a tripel
ChardoSano is a slightly hazy corn/gold color with a slight white head.
Smells of light fruits, grapes, and sugar sweetness.
The taste is dry light fruits. The barreling has given this Monte Sano maibock an almost tripel-like smell and taste. Very dry.
Feels pretty light and easy with a smooth finish and little aftertaste.
