An extremely underrated beer, possibly misunderstood. Pours a beautiful lightly golden color, with some auburn highlights and a soft creamy head. The aroma jumps right out of the bottle, loads of citrus fruit, and just ah int of spice, although I know no spices are added. Loads of candi sugar are present on the palate, a healthy cookie dough malt backbone. The mouthfeel is something similar to biting into a piece of fruit pie in the spring time, sweet and tart. A really lovely drinking experience.
