Sample at Mikkeller San Diego. The beer pours a hazy peach-orange color with a medium frothy white head that diminishes gradually to a film. Sparse strings of lacing. Aroma of funky fruit, oak and yeast. Medium body with flavors of vinous oak, funky yeast, fruit and hops. The finish is funky and oaky with a fruity hops aftertaste. Pretty good overall.
