22 oz bottle. Pours a rich looking copper color with a 1" fluffy white head that recedes leaving some nice lace. Aroma is grapefruit and other citrus along with grassy, floral hops and that Belgian yeast funky smell I love. Taste is pine and citrus hops tamed down a notch by the Belgian yeast. This is a terrific combination.Palate is soft at first, then the hop acidity and carbonation kicks in for a bitter finish. Very interesting style.

Mild toffee and citrus yeasty with a little nuts and citrus medium dry finishing bitter bite. I love this style, so this is good, but it’s not the best of style which are more perfumy aromatic citrus yeast forward lighter body and dryer. Still, very enjoyable.
