The aromas are a nice blend of fresh tropical fruit, resin and a little citrus hops with some wet grain and pale malt. Flavors are also a nice blend of balanced bitter and sweet with good carbonation body and finish. A little mint in there too. Very nice beer.

Pours a hazy, orange-pineapple, with smallish head. Aromas of citrus and tropical fruit. Flavor is citrus and tropical fruit, some white wine, some dankness, and a touch of hop bitterness at the finish. Soft, full mouthfeel. Very nice.

Draught at Gingerman, 10/29/18.
Heavily hazy-to-soupy, maize-bronze-golden body is topped by a small, off-white head that quickly fades to a ring.
Nose is VERY fruity with borderline canned peach aromas and heavily twangy papaya. Overripe citrus and borderline banana-like notes with cracker-heavy malts on the end. Maybe a bit of diacetyl in there? Hard to say for sure, could just be the crusty, crackery malt notes. A hint of sharpness from alcohol/ester, with heavily fruity yeast and light bubble gum.
The flavor is very similar, with equally twangy, intense papaya. I don't recall Enigma being this overripe-fruit tasting (close to spoiled). Even that would be ok, but for the severely cracker-heavy and lightly sharp alcohol on the end. Pine, papaya, overripe pineapple, peach and grapefruit pack in. High attenuation and not nearly as soft as one expects for the style and from Equilibrium.

Can. Little Leeds Beer House. Also had this on tap at LLBH, where it seemed brighter, but this rating is based on the canned version. Deep, orange gold. Film of super sticky, lasting, white head. Nose has jellied fruit. Stewed citrus. Sweetened grapefruit. Touch of twang. Taste is sweet and rich. Plenty of oily citrus bitterness. Medium body. Smooth and slick. Low carbonation. Bitter citrus and candied peel to finish. Tasty gear.
