Pours from the bottle a slightly hazy gold straw, with light foaming. Light coriander note, slightly tart finish. Better than most, and an easy drinker for the summer.

On tap. Poured a cloudy, straw-yellow color with a small, off-white head of foam. It smelled of banana, clove, cracked wheat and yeast. Nice banana, clove and wheat taste.

Served in a conic pint at Raleigh's in Berkeley, CA.
Attractive deep amber color, reminiscent of fresh apple cider. Moderate, quickly dissipating head, good lacing.
Aroma of bright fruit and light malt.
Flavor is clean tropical fruit - hints of pineaple, mango, perhaps grape. Malt is very light. Minimal hop presence until the aftertaste, which is clean and bright and has a note of orange peel flavor.
Mouthfeel is slightly heavier than expected for the style, but balanced.
Overall, a good style example, but not much complexity here.
