Cloudy orange color, thick rocky head. Aroma of sweet citrus, hop and some bubblegum, some vanilla. Taste is very bitter, but also sweet. It reminds me of an Orval, but then thinner and more watery. But as a beginning brewery, very promising.

Big, white head that lasts nicely. Huge citrus sour nose. Bitter, but well balanced through the citric sourness (imparted probably by the hops) and a nice malt backbone.
