A hazy orange beer with a thin orange head. The aroma is sweet alcoholic combined with notes of wood and fruits. The flavor is sweet malty and very fruity, leading to a dry slightly woody end.

Bottled. Slightly hazy amber coloured. Fruits, hops and tea in the aroma and in the flavour. Soft, sweet and juicy. Very pleasant.

Pours a transparent dark copper with a nicely-lacing thin white head. Fresh citrus piney hoppy aroma has a nice underlying malty presence. Body starts with a nice sweet sticky caramel maltiness and lots of fresh resiny hop balance with a long-lasting citric hoppy finish. A nice, flavorful, American strong ale. Many thanks to slob for the bottle!
