look: 3.5 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 3 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3.25

A - bright clear copper golden, one finger of head retained at half that, minor spots of clingly lacing
S - decent banana and clove esters, grains, sour citrus, generally fairly mild aromas
T - similar to the nose but with bigger sourness and a bit of a plastic thing going on, its not bad but its not up to snuff here
M - fairly light and decently carbonated, somewhat sour with an alcohol dry heat showing up in the finish
O - unfortunately not all that impressed with this brew, it has the potential to be a solid offering but between the plastic flavour sneaking in and the alcohol presence not integrated so elegantly it just doesn't make a name for itself, not a try if its in front of you but not worth seeking out

Appearance- sparkling light orange with coarse 1 finger of offwhite foam on top. Doesn't linger some light lacing .New bottle style with antler bear.

Aroma- watermelon, slightly medicinal, some esthers, banana some stonefruit plum nectarine.

Taste- Vinous, boozy and chlorinated?! Not a lot of maltiness just booze and esthers. Resiny hops that are just destroyed by the booze.

Mouthfeel- Medium bodied but slick and tongue coating. The cough medicine lingers on the palette a bit too long.

Overall- i would take a less alcoholic version of this that had a more rounded malt profile and a bit more hop presence. Maybe I am prejudice but if its gonna be this strong it needs to be a bit more balanced maybe even a touch darker. Maybe its a triple that drinks like a quad, all i know is I probably wouldn't get another.

I do not understand all the low reviews on this beer, but i guess that just goes to show how incredibly different one pallet is from the next.

10% abv..i expected a punch in the mouth when i went to take my first sip, but this absolutely blew me away..one of the cleanest and smoothest beers i have had, maybe ever..easily in my top 3 favorite beers..a completely genius brew

some dark fruits that lead to a sweet and full taste. this was part of a mix six i made and has since become an old favorite.

Served from a 22 ounce bottle bought just a few weeks ago.

A --- very soft and weak straw yellow

S --- my favorite part of the beer. I pick up apple, banana, cloves, yeast, and earthiness

T --- mild, sourness and watery

M --- low carbonation and little body

O --- not my favorite style of beer and this isn't going to change my mind.
