Orange Verde is a beer-wine hybrid many years in the making: Shiro and Golden plum beers from 2019/20, rested on kumquats, and blended with Chardonnay at bottling. The result is reminiscent of skin contact wine, with great acidity (tart+), a tropical fruit aroma, and notes of tangerine, sour orange, and kumquats (the lemon of oranges), plus a pinch of mint for good measure.

375mL bottle, pours a hazy pale golden with a quickly-dissipating white head. Nose brings out plenty of acidity from the plums, with some bugs, and light vinous notes. Flavour is buggy and vinous, with plenty of very tart plums, moderate-to-high acidity, white wine, and bugs. Complex, buggy, and acidic finish, with an aggressive carbonation. The plums come across as too acidic, but this is still very nicely made.
