Poured from a 510 ml bottle. Aroma is fairly fruity with notes of stone fruit, white wine grapes and hints of citrus. Light herbal, spicy phenolic notes and earthy funk. Hints of oak and alcohol. Pours a somewhat hazy, orange color with a medium large, thick, fizzy, white head that recedes to the edges fairly quickly where with linger soft a bit. No lacing and faint legs. Flavor is somewhat acidic with a faint sweetness and light malt notes. Low bitterness and light alcohol notes. Flavor is not as fruity as the aroma but there is still lighter notes of stone fruit, green grapes and a bit more citrus. Light oak and earthy notes with hints of herbal, spicy phenolics. Mouthfeel is medium light bodied with medium high carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a solid wild ale with lots of fruity complexity to it that is complimented by other fermentation derived aromas and flavors.
