From the label“The wisdom of ages hangs sweet and free from the branches of Elder Betty's elderberry tree. She is the matriarch of the sultry sun and the spirit in our bare dancing feet. Elder Betty is a Weiss-style ale with bready malt flavor balanced by a touch of hops and complemented by the tart berry flavors of elderberry.”
