a: clear golden with a finger head.. active carbonation streaming up..

s: graininess.. light citrus with some lemon peel.. hints of spice. rounded out with fruity esters that create an apricot aroma. maybe even some white grape?

t: again more graininess.. big yeasty characters & some spices. some floral notes as well.. very light on the citrus. the apricot comes in on the backend with faint lemon peel. refreshing.

mf: light-medium body with crisp carbonation. dry chalky finish begs for another sip.

o: a nice thirst quencher. just wish the yeast wasnt so overpowering..

Edit: had another couple bottles a few days later.. got a bit of a tart/sourness in the flavor.. its just slight though.. added a nice touch..

Serving type: bottle
