333 c&c from Malt & Vine. Pours hazy light gold with a slight, fizzy white head. Nice aroma of mixed floral and cherry. With a little banana in the background. Med body, almost. Flavor is more bitter than not, and the floral/fruit combo is almost like perfume. The fruit is arguably cherry, and there’s no significant sugar present, so it’s perfume, fruit and dry. Finishes like that.

Strong fruity nose, apparently from the cherries but tended as much toward blueberry. Clear bright golden color with modest head, looks much like a lager in the glass, final pour from the bottle produced a slight cloudiness from the yeast, but there was only a small ring of dense yeast packed in the bottom of the bottle. Flavor tends toward a cherry-banana candy like fruitiness, I can almost taste the almond note listed in the description. Finish is clean but with a long lingering candy like fruity sweetness. Not sure if I care for it a whole lot but its definitely unique. Fairly nice medium bodied mouthfeel, nice soft carbonation.

Bottle. Cloudy yellow with a large white head. Aroma of cherries, almonds, an odd mustiness. Taste of cherries, vanilla, medicinal fly spray. Not my sort of thing at all.
