Fairly hazy deep copper and bronze coloured body with a large two to three centimetre tall frothy tan head, covering the 75 per cent opaque glowing crimson and amber tint. Aroma of very strong syrup, resin, floral, citrusey and especially mangoey and melony characteristics with a good amount of malt and alcohol in the nose as well. Full-bodied; Super rich and sticky sweet flavours at first with pineapple juice, oranges, resin, honey and especially mangoes and papaya all coming through, especially at the end, with some rich malts, a light dose of hops, but this really is all about the super sweet and fruity notes. Aftertaste shows the alcohol, a lot of malts, some slightly dry and herbal elements, but a crisp floral note are the complexities that somehow make it past the rich malts, fruit, sweetness and pungency in this one. Overall, a strong and pungent, but very fruity and fairly easy-drinking beer, considering the alcohol here, but full of flavours and balanced relatively well. Great to try fresh-ish, from Ohio and a nice beer before my eventual 9000th rating! I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Rozi's Wine House in Lakewood, Ohio on 31-July-2021 for US$4,10, canned on 03-February-2021 and sampled at my house back in Washington on 19-September-2021.
