Bottled at PBF. Hazy golden, small head. Fruity juniper berry aroma. Mid sweet with medium body and clean, rounded mouthfeel. Slight tart vinous notes. Juniper is evident. Slight salty bitterness. Gin seems to surface late and dominate the finish.

Bottled 66cl (PBF)
Slightly hazy yellow color, small white head. Juniper, resin and some citric aromas in the nose. Light bodied. Resiny juniper flavor. Almost gin-like. Spicey, not really "APA".

22oz bomber poured into a shaker. Pours a lightly hazy burnt orange with about half a finger of white head. Aroma of citrus hops, a little spruce, juniper and some gin botanicals. Taste is medium sour and light bitter. Lots of juniper berry with some citrus. Medium bodied with a thin and slick texture. Lively carbonation and a long sour finish. Overall, not bad. Not exactly what I was expecting but drinkable anyways. Worth the $3 I got it for on the discount rack.

Draft at County Grill Hampton VA: Overripe lemon, pecan and pine nose, the wood not the needles. Cloudy amber, thin head, but good adherence to the glass. Overripe lemon flavor with a burst juniper bows and berries at midpalate. finishes with a second and unexpected punch of distinct whole grapefruit. unlike the other John JOhn beers. Wonderful flavor and transitions. Exceptional and creative.
