Sampled at Dominion Wine, pours a clear orange with some frothy, white head. Nose has orange and tangerine, some flowers, a little biscuity. Flavor follows right along, citrus, orange, tangerine, biscuit, light cracker too, mild resin. Finishes a little sticky but mostly dry. Very well done.

Tap. Pours clear orange, small off white head, good lacing. Aroma of typical fruit. Flavor is pineapple smoothie, mango, light pine. Light plus sweet, light bitter. Medium body. Continuing my trend that fruit added IPA detracts from the style.

On tap at south street. Pours a nice murky orange. Taste is tart citrus balanced nicely with pineapple and mango. Not heavy alcohol flavors. I might be crazy but I almost taste coconut as well. Nice offering. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
