Pale amber / deep gold with a frothy white head, and a slightly burnt caramel and floral aroma. The taste kicks off with a bitter kick, citrus notes up front with more floral characteristics in the background, with some sweet fruit malt also evident. The finish is long with a pretty high level of astringency
