Bottle: Poured a hazy dirty blonde color ale with a large foamy head with good retention and some good lacing. Aroma consists of sweet Belgian malt notes with light fruity ester. Taste is a good mix between a solid malt backbone with some fruity ester and a quite sweet finish. Body is quite full with limited filtration and good carbonation with no apparent alcohol. Good offering with nice fruity ester though a tad too sweet and maybe lacking some attenuation.

resh mango just jumps at me. Slice of sweet, juicy mango mixed with pieces of tangerine and a hint of peaches. Like a fruit salad.

Had this again a couple years after saving it and it doesn’t hold up well. A little too boozy and balance is off to hell. Not sure if this is from a different batch - i liked it in the brewpub when I first had it fresh. earlier rating: Pours cloudy orange with good head and a little lacing. Aroma has some hops, citrus and alcohol. Also some apricot it seems but that may be an overthrow from the fruit helmet I just had. Taste has wonderful marmalade bitterness and sour rolled together. Tastes like some sort of IIPA and belgianstrong ale hybrid. On tap at brewpub.
