Bottle at bolo. Hazy orange pour, small white head. Oily grapefruit aroma, with some strong tartness and subtle funk. Good mouth feel, solid carb.
Finish is quite bitter, with a strong citrus pithy bitterness. Good dose of grapefruit juice, and zest,mo range seems lots, tartness fades, and disappears.

Bottle at Volvo.
Hazy yellow pour, medium white head. Huge citrus zest aroma, light yeast, and some solid tartness, with mango, and apricot. Good mouth feel, very active carb. Super citrusy finish, the lime come out ahead, with some candied citrus zest flavour that lingers. Very clean, and refeshing, with a solid tangy in the end.

Bottle at Volo. Slightly hazy Amber, orange pour, with a small white head. Aroma has some good citrus, but a touch on the sweet side, with a very light spice note from the rye. Mouth fee and carb are good if anything a touch low. Bitterness is medium, sweet citrus finish, subtle spice, honestly it tastes a little old.

The local beer shop keeps a steady stream of Jester King beers coming through. Fine by me. I picked up a 16 oz can of Sudden Death a month back. And today my ABGB tulip glass is prepared to catch a pour. The liquid is an interesting amber-gold and the persistent ice white head is fed by a furious carbonation. With a sniff I determine citrus, hops and yellow fruit. Lift to take a drink. The taste follows the scent, lemon rind, grass, a hint of apricots, crackers and a mild hoppy bitterness. At only 5% abv, the sensation is deeper than I anticipated. A pleasant beer to drink on an unseasonably nice early spring day.

0.75l bottle from Beergium, shared with Elvis & family. Aroma of wood, mushrooms, caraway and roasted malt with acetic note. Pours almost black color with thin frothy off-white head and average sparkling appearance. Taste starts mildly tart vinous with roasted malty note, follows by wood, mushrooms, vegetables and bread with smooth mouthfeel. Full body, slick texture and average carbonation in palate. Liquid magic mushrooms…
