My Bottom Line :
Within honeyed cereals grow juicy peaches before leafy hop bitterness attempts to balance out this oily strong ale.
Further Personal Perceptions :
-A slim veil of foam skirts the hazy pale amber.
-The soft prickling makes the residual sugars feel heavier.
-Fruitiness also delves into orange-y territory.
-This must be more fun when hand-pulled/cask conditioned.
-The fruit character and important sugars became cloying halfway through the pint.
On tap at the brewpub.

Appearance : Clear yellow with no head.
Aroma : Great fruity hops with nice malt and light passion fruits. Light honey.
Taste : Light pasion fruits with intense malt and nice fruity hops. Very fruity and malty finish. Sweet and bitter finish. Light honey. Nice soft carbonation.
