Enjoyed at home out of a 12 oz bottle

TheMezanist's picture

Light gold color, sharp white head that dissipates to leave a soft lacing over the top.

Nose is full of ripe fruit, ready to pop and be devoured. Apricots, orange, something spicy.

Taste is malty and slightly tart. Light sweetness in the aftertaste with done hop bite. Fills the mouth with flavor.
