History
Created at Buckley's in Milwaukee. When I first had this drink I thought it was great, but the profile really through me for a loop! The elderflower was very subdued, but the herbal anise-ie notes were great along with the dry tartness and a really wonderful earthyness. I wouldn't have thought hops would've brought that out as strongly as it did--I thought it must have been mezcal or a reposado. Great drink!
