Poured from a 750 ml bottle. Aroma has moderate acidic notes with citrus and pineapple. Faint oak and some light malt and honey notes. Moderately strong tea notes that come across as herbal and floral. Reminds me a lot of their gin barrel saisons. Pours a somewhat hazy, copper color with a medium small, somewhat thin, white head that recedes quickly to a thin film that lingers for a bit on the edges. No lacing or legs. Flavor is moderately acidic with some light sweetness. Acidity has orange, lemon and pineapple. Light honey and oak notes. Moderate tea notes with herbal phenolic and floral notes. Mouthfeel is medium to medium light bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a nice beer. The tea really comes across more like an herbal and floral note similar to gin barrel aged beers. The honey adds some nice sweetness and perhaps a bit of the floral character without coming across as oxidized.
