Small white rim, fast gone over pale, lightly cold-hazed golden beer. Fantastic vinous nose, really as from white wine (Montepulciano???), malonic acid, lactic acid, green grapes. Sweet, more reminiscent of dessert wine, but with an acidbite throughout, the ale working. A fine flavour not unlike pineapple, if not as sweet; flowery - that's more the wine; also a bit of undefined citrus. Bit sticky, good carbonation, if not visibly so, finish is (c)leaner. Marriage réussi. Sweeter that expected, however.
