Hazy deep amber and slightly copper coloured body with a nice opaque glow and a thinnish, fast-dying tan head. Aroma of honey, resin, tropical fruits, citrus and way more syrupy sweet notes along with a big dose of grain and yeast. Medium-bodied; Strong funky citrus and orange flavours with a hint of curacao along with more of an earthy/metallic malt note and little else aside from alcohol and a pungent, yeast-centric flavour. Aftertaste shows the syrupy, sticky and resinous notes with a little bit of sugars, some pungent honey flavours and an astringent bitterness from all the funk with not much coming from fresh hops, rather from the funky side of things here, but especially the hops, yeast and pungency from the malt notes. Overall, not such a great beer of course and worth passing up, in favour of some other local South Carolinian beer. I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from GrapeVine in Fort Mill, South Carolina on 21-August-2017 for US$2,34 after watching the Eclipse with my family, sampled at home in Washington on 09-October-2017.
