750 c&c from Corti Bros. Pours tarnished gold with a large foamy white head. Aroma is floral and fruity with something else beneath. Med body or a bit more. Flavor is caramel at a level not unexpected for a 10% ale. The floral gets a bit lost and the flavor is headed towards citrus/pine more than pale stone fruit. But a bit of everything. I think it's not Brut as found in the lowever ABV IPAs, but given the 10% it might qualify at that rarified level. Dryer than the ABV would suggest, quite hoppy, and more than moderately bitter, it's a good drink.
