Canned 12/7, drunk 12/20/18.
Lightly-to-moderately hazy, brass-lemon-gold with a large, well-retained, white head atop.
Meyer lemon, fruity, lightly bubble gum-tinged, English yeast with rich, but well-attenuated base malts yielding tons of honey to easily balance the gentle grapefruit and pine. The main force is mango, pineapple and orange juice with no alcohol or flaw.
In the mouth it's soft, malty, supple and well-attenuated with low bitterness but still enough to balance the strong juice. Nectarine and pineapple are prominent with light grapefruit, lemon and tangerine lingering. Tight carbonation, clean and very well-done without any dough, resin, or off-yeast notes.
