3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Served on draft at the restaurant. Pours a clear golden color with a large creamy tan head. Good head retention. Aroma of candi sugar, pale malts, tannins, something chemical and some booze. The taste is banana, citrus, bread, spice, tannins. Medium bodied, spritzy carbonation, wine-like and a little all over the place, but still good.

Draft. This one has an aroma and a flavor of slightly sour bubblegum. Not a bad beer at all, but it’s off style.

P: Medium body, sticky, very mild carbonation.
