Poured a cloudy orange with a good sized white head. Smells of raspberry, blackberry, hops and grasses - the fruit scent definitely carried over to the taste - it wasn’t overwhelming but was certainly evident. It wasn’t nearly as sour as some of the fruity beers I have had in the past but I couldn’t drink a bunch of these either. A good beer to drink one or two of.

Poured a hazy copper orange with a 1-2 finger creamy orange head. The nose has sourish/rottenish fruit, grassy hops, a bit sweet. The flavor is sweet, lightly fruity, has a hoppy bite, astringent bite, citrusy. The palate is astringent and finishes with rank fruit.

Hazy orangish pour with red hues. Fluffy white head and minimal lace. Fruity aroma. Lots of citrus up front with a dry fruity finish Very enjoyable!
