750ml bottle pours a hazy, neon yellow with a ring of white head. Nose has a ton of buttery oak, tropical fruit, white grape, passion fruit, some raw wood, some preserved lemon. Flavor is tart, lemony, woody, buttery, almost like lemon custard, grassy too, white grape. Really buttery, oily finish.

750 ml bottle poured into a tulip. Picked up a bottle at TWCP during RBSG. 5% ABV according to the label. Hazy apricot yellow/orange with around 3 fingers of off-white head. Poured with a bit of a pinkish tint. Aromas of herbs, spices, hibiscus, stone fruit. Tastes of hibiscus, slightly tart fruit, light herbs and spices, subtle salt. Medium-light body with a dry finish. Medium-low carbonation. Better than I expected.

750. Pours a hazy orangish amber with a fairly dense head. Aromas have a bit of an off edge to them, but finish in soapy citrus. Not sure what the off smell is... kind of hard to describe. Flavor is pretty middle of the road. Honey and orange blossom with a zingy carbonation. It’s a decent APA, but not a great one. I hoped for so much more.
