Poured from a bottle. Aroma is a balanced blend of fruit, phenolics and oak. Oak is moderate with a noticeable white wine character to it. A medium light peppery phenolic note that does not seem to cross over into plastic but gets close. Quite a bit of stone fruit with apricots being most prevalent but also some peaches and nectarines. Lighter red apple and pear. Bottle was indeed a gusher; very happy I glanced at the previous couple reviews. Pours a hazy, golden orange with a very large, pillowy, white head that exhibits impressive retention and does not seem to recede. High lacing and medium small legs. Flavor is slightly sweet with some candi sugar and light caramel notes and hints of pale malt. Light stone fruit notes as well as pear. Medium light phenolic note that is peppery with a bit of clove as well. Light oak and white wine character. Medium light bitterness and a dry finish. A hint of acidity and citrus. Some light honey notes too. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with rather high carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, this is definitely past it’s peak but I only received it in a box last week so its not my fault. The aroma is still nice and fruity, but the flavor has turned away from the fruit and towards the phenolics and malt. Some light oxidation is showing through in the form of honey.
