Golden color. Big blood orange and hoppy nose. Slightly sour. Dry mouth, blood oranges and some fruitiness but nothing special. Over attenuated.

Thanks Tom.
Poured into a becher pint glass, the appearance was a burnt orange color with a glossy film of a little white head. Quickly dissipated to leave some light stringy lace.
The aroma had some sweet orange pulpy juiciness, almost like extract. Didn’t have too much of the bitter side of the oranges. Light floral hops, but not that bitter.
The flavor was extremely sweet through that orange sweet pulpiness. The aftertaste was all about the oranges and so was the finish.
The feel was just below medium bodied. There’s some crushability to this. Carbonation felt fine. ABV felt fine.
Overall, I know blood oranges are extremely sweet so I guess I didn’t mind how they came across in this beer. Part of me was hoping for a bit more hop punch to soften that sweetness. But no worries, this was alright. I think I get what was going on with this for the most part.

Reviewed from notes. Thanks Tom.
This was poured into a becher pint glass.
The appearance was a soft light yellow color with a fair transparency about it. Some carbonation could be seen rising at a moderate pace. Flimsy white head quickly died off. Not much lace.
The aroma had some sweet freshly cut grassy notes, light lemon, some sweet corn.
The flavor was sweet through the previously mentioned aromas to arrange as I expected in the aftertaste and finish.
The feel was light bodied with a great crushability about it. ABV felt as projected.
Overall, I didn’t expect much but was grateful from my trading buddy to try a brewery I haven’t had something from in what seemed a damn long time.

Pours dark brown with a beige head that soon fades to wispy lacing. Hints of dank torf, caramel and chocolate in an aroma that altogether was rather on the weak side. In fairness, the slightly too cold serving temperature may have dulled the olfactory delights.Taste is characterized by roasted notes, light caramel and chocolate, and the flat, bitter notes from the pils malt, but yet still not a lot of depth. Body stays rather light with moderate carbonation. Not bad, but it feels literally like a mix of two brews.
