Can in a trade with tfontana. Thanks Tom! Bold juicy aroma of mango, peach, apricot, and notes of malt. Flavor is large with peach, sweet pineapple, apricot like hints. Texture is massively juicy. I got to say that this can hang with the Trillium’s and Deciduous’ of New England. This is delicious! Hey brewer, if you are reading this... don’t change a thing. Wonderful recipe!

Can pour into nonic pint glass from The Beeracks. Appearance is cloudy light brown-dark orange (very juicy) with trace sparkle at the edges of the glass, a couple of dark floaties, finger-width foamy off-white head with poor retention and nice soapy lacing. Aroma is strong, sweet (stone?) fruit, citrus, malty pretzel and transient whiff of herbs. Taste is citrus, pineapple, (stone fruit?), hint of tart fruit. Mouthfeel is medium side of light-to-medium bodied with smooth, thick texture, soft-to-average carbonation and finish as taste with mildest dry bitterness. Overall, strong aroma and flavor, though hard to pin down (but maybe not everything HAS to taste exactly like something else--maybe it's OK to just be sweet, fruity hops!). Thick, silky mouthfeel and decent look, too. A winner!
