A touch hazy golden and peach coloured body with a thinnish, single centimetre tall off-white head that fades quickly. Aroma of pure fruits with raspberries, guava, pineapple and a touch of apricots noticeable along with some light briney notes and a touch of malt as well - nice smelling! Light-bodied; Strong salty and briney flavours up front with a good salt quality showing with some wheat and subdued malts and a smooth tropical fruit flavour at first with guava and strawberries coming through and ending with a lactose and fructose note towards the end of pure sugars. Aftertaste is balanced but very fruit-centric and showing some softer wheat and malt properties with a good dose of tartness and dry malts. Overall, a refreshing beer that shows a lot of brine, but even more tropical and fruit notes and sweetness with a good character, but super easy-drinking throughout. Nice to sample and well worth trying to find if you like good goses and you are local to Washington/Virginia. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Harris Teeter in Pentagon Row (Arlington), Virginia on 07-May-2019 for US$1,87 sampled at my house a few blocks away in Washington on 14-July-2019.
