4oz pour on cask at Bluejacket. Pours a very murky orange with some slim, white head. Nose is interesting, some tropical fruit, shishito pepper, grassy, vegetal. Flavor has a lot of green bell pepper and shishito pepper, coriander, some lemon grass, some straw and green grass too. Prickly finish. Cask might have hurt this.
