I have found Ex Novo to be a New Mexico brewery with beers I like quite a bit. This tall boy can came from my local beer place although I do find them in Santa Fe mostly. Can opened and pour shows a fully cloudy yellow-gold liquid completed with a skim of completely white foam. Oh, I do like the scent. Full tilt yellow fruit, mangoes, perhaps guava, some orange juice and a hint of grain. The taste takes a step backwards, not bad but not to the level of the nose. Guava certainly, orange rind, white bread, a bit of grapefruit and some hoppiness fortunately. Not bad but not what I anticipated from the nose. And the name of the beer does nothing to elevate it.
