Despite the lack of serial comma Short’s Brewing Company’s The Magician is a tasty beer. However, I think I may have an off pack that is tasty but in the wrong way; something nice caused by the beer going bad. Short’s describes the beer is described as…
A lustrous dark red London ale with a rich malt combination that lends complex notes of toasted caramel, raisins, chocolate, and roasted toffee. Very light hop additions let the true malt characters promenade throughout the duration of this pleasurable experience.
…yet what I have here in my glass is quite sour, almost like Rodenbach. It’s not bad, but it definitely doesn’t taste like the description reads.
I think I’ll drop Short’s a note and ask them if I have a bad pack.
