On tap. Pours with a resilient, tight, off-white head over a lightly hazed copper to amber hued body. Aromas are sweet, floral, kumquats, candied tangerine, apricot, nectarine with a light acidity. Flavors are mildly acidic and a bit funk. Malic and lactic. Light tobacco and musty notes. Sharp, dried apricot flavors (vibrantly dried fruit). Medium esters. A bit watery and thin. Lively bubbles, somewhat try. Light tannic notes at the finish. Peach schnapps. Lightly sour, but very juicy. Interesting.
