Sensory Description: Immerse yourself in the understated yet complex aroma of 'Impact Wrench.' Subdued notes of freshly baked bread, courtesy of the spelt, wheat, and oats, mingle with lighter hop notes of citrus pith and tropical fruit. The flavor is a harmonious blend of more pronounced breadiness, layered with citrus pith, tropical nuances, and subtle herbal undertones. A touch of booziness adds warmth without overpowering, while a surprising candied quality enhances the sweetness. The mouthfeel is smooth, with lower carbonation and a balanced sweetness, leading to a big, slightly sweet finish that masks the high alcohol content and makes this brew surprisingly drinkable.
