Draft at 8 Degrees Plato. Pours a mostly clear orange gold with a small bit of white foam that dissipates. Huge passion fruit nose with faint peach, nectarine zest aromas as it warms up a bit. Tart with round and juicy sweet apricot, nectarine and more passion fruit. A nice amount of tartness, but there's also a balance of sweetness that comes out as well. Lingering creamy vanilla and tart passion fruit.
