Pours very cloudy blonde/yelloworange. Medium to mediumsmall, rather unstable white pillowy head. Scent is rich, tropical pineapple, papaya, mango. Mild malty side. Taste is full, tad sweet obivously, but not overpowering. Alcohol shows, perhaps a tiny bit to much in comparancy to the best in style, but that is exactly where this beer belongs - withing the best of style. Creamy body, very attractive hoparoma profile (papaya, tropical, pineapple ) medium bitterness and still fairly drinkable. Perhaps - if you drop the style idea thing - this would be a better beer to me at about 8.5% , but as it is, its far from bad .
