Very cloudy tan. Aroma is rich w bright citrus, overripe orchard fruits and a bit of chewiness. The taste is quite pronounced chewy, with light orchard fruit accents, a blast of alcohol late. I had hoped that one of New Zealand’s pre-eminent brewers would bring some subtlety and class to this style of beer, but alas this has all the subtlety and class of a grindcore band.
