Bottled. Beer is hazy, medium oxidized caramel brown with a large, off-white, frothy, mostly and rapidly diminishing head. Chunky lacing.<P>Smells horribly flawed. Malty with a light note of caramel; Hoppy with a trace of lemon zest; Otherwise it’s a pure diacetyl bomb. I can smell it from the table before I even touch the glass it’s so bad.<P>Moderately sweet, lightly acidic/juicy sour with a short, trace acidic and sweet very dirty finish.<P>The body is light, the texture is watery and the carbonation is lively.
