Tap. Hazy golden color with white head. Aroma is salty, wheat, lavender, green bell peppers, milky yeasts, grapefruit pith. Taste is a bit candy fizz, lavender, chili. Silky mouthfeel, medium carbonation. Great, I liked this better than Siren's version I've had from the bottle.

Bottle at tasting. Aroma of chili, herbs and nettle. Strange rich taste of lime, soft spicey chili, yeast, malt and some sweet ester that good be honey. Weird, but nice in a way.

Bottle: Poured a hazy pale yellow color ale with a nice white large foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of tart notes with subtle lime notes also perceptible. Taste is a mix of lime and subtle tart notes is pleasant. Chili and honey notes are harder to detect. Body is full with limited filtration and good carbonation. Enjoyable with good level of complexity even though some ingredients are harder to detect then others.

Poured into a tall tulip, the appearance was a sly hazy burnt orange color with a slim finger’s worth of white foamy head that quickly dissipated. Sly remnant of lacing stuck to the sides.
The aroma had the chili with the lime then with some sweet honey and then a sly scorched meat (yes, this actually kinda smelled like tacos, lol, okay, is that what the brewer intended, I don’t know, but I like it, haha).
The flavor, once again, yes, tacos, everything tacos, just like in the aroma, but the meaty portion super far underground. Sly dry chili spice to quick sweet fruity aftertaste running on into the same sort of finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a nice sessionability about it. Carbonation feels super refined (and this is actually a week old, lol), okay, yes, the spice of the chili hits nicely with the vegetal/fruity feel, but I like it.
Overall, yes, I’d probably lean close to the spice/herb/vegetable style, but this is a really nice one if you like tacos. Too bad, I’m having this on a Friday, should have saved this for Taco Tuesday.

Cloudy gold with a big chili lime aroma, medium bodied with a very round carbonation, like drinking a mildly spiced taco. It’s a deft use of spice and chili.
