UPDATED: MAR 8, 2006 Bottled. Clear amber, rich firm head. Obvious aroma of mango and lychee. Sweet with clean mouthfeel and English style malt character. Medium hop intensity with a decidedly American touch. Lightly resiny finish despite restrained bitterness. The most stylish beer yet from this brewer, some points deducted though for being a little too sweet and insufficient malt softness.
