Growler pours crystal clear copper with gold edges and thin off white head. The aroma is sweet with citrus candy and tangelo Kool-aid (if such a thing exists), some ripe plums, orange sherbet and some spicy hops. The taste is sweet with rich orange sherbet ice cream, some spicy hops, mild grainy malts, a touch of sweet corn kernels, growing citrus and pine hop bitterness. It ends with a lingering citrus sherbet ice cream sense, a bit of grains and quickly fading hop bitterness.

Draft at Brewvival: No aroma. Hazy amber, thick white head, good lacing. Peach flavor. Alcohol evident, not easily quaffable. Overrated.

Location: Cask at Rattle 'N Hum, 2/20/10

Overall Impression: Wasn't able to try as much stuff as I wanted at the Cigar City event Wednesday, so I went back the following Saturday to try some more stuff. This was one of the ones I got to try. A very nice beer. Pours a nice golden-copper color, smooth and enjoyable. Some sweetness, some creaminess, good stuff.
