Bottle: Poured a hazy orange color ale with a rather large foamy head with good retention and some good lacing. Aroma of heavy residual sugars with some Belgian malt notes and some honey and pear notes also noticeable. Taste is also dominated by heavy Belgian malt with quite a bit of residual sugars with some pears and honey notes. Body is full with limited filtration and no apparent alcohol. Enjoyable but like most beer from this brewery I think it could do with more attenuation.

Fresh cut apples and funk on the nose. Hazy copper, efferevescent, enormous yellow head. Apple and apple core, light traces of funk. Light lemongrass in the end. Alcohol not too obvious. Kind of boring with not a lot happening.

Capped 750 from South Bay Drugs. Pours very hazy orange amber with a foamy 3 finger beige head. It’s loaded with citrus/fruit aroma. Near full body - maybe - the foam confuses that. The flavor is very fruit and yeast/spice. There’s some heat burn in the throat, but it doesn’t mess with the flavor. I can even imagine a slight hint of funk. There’s a near oak component. It finishes astringent/dry. Nice.

On tap at the brewery. Pours with a hazy peach hue with an off-white head. Aroma is musty, candi sugar, stone fruit and a mineral quality. Flavors of dried stone fruit, tangerine, apple, and light ginger. Spicy and dry. Lively bubbles.
