Hazy light amber, with a yeasty, curranty, hoppy aroma and a crisp, woody, bitter palate

Looks like I'll have to jump in to defend this substantial amber ale, with lots of malt and a good bitterness as well.

First whiff is intensely fruit and sour, and so is the first taste. Flavors were similar to sour cherries and apple cider. A very rich, sour and unusual beer. Difficult to finish. Overwhelms food.
