The Siren of the Seas is a fickle creature: benevolent or spiteful, she can bestow a safe passage and bountiful catch, or provoke storms and shipwrecks. Sailors have long cast gifts of flowers, food or trinkets into the sea in exchange for good fortune. Talisman - our delicately dry-hopped and golden-hued ale with its tropical and citrusy aroma - may be just the thing to encourage the siren’s blessing.

Cloudy amber color, almost no head, dull hue. The aroma is a bit fruity. The mouthfeel is extremely dry, that leads to a metallic feeling; the malt profile is mild, a not bready, and a hint of toffee; it has enough bitterness, with a citrus touch.
Not bad, but imprecise.

On tap at Strange Fellows, pours a cloudy golden with a tiny head. Aroma brings out tropical fruity hops from the mosaic - amazingly fruity. Flavour is unfortunately not as pleasant or robust, with muted tropical fruits and dry biscuity malt. The whole thing feels rather obscured, with nothing much going on. Meh.
