V2 can pour into nonic pint glass from Total Wine & More, Burlington. Appearance is cloudy light brown/orange with trace sparkle, 1/2-finger width off-white foamy head with poor retention and nice leggy lacing. Aroma is fruit and light citrus with dark bready malt backbone and slight alcohol burn. Taste is initial sweet orange fruit that quickly morphs into astringent, metallic bitterness. Mouthfeel is medium side of light-to-medium bodied with smooth, thick texture, lively carbonation and crisp finish as taste. Overall, look and feel are about right (though too carbonated). Aroma is nice but taste goes off the tracks. A little tweaking and they'll have something.
