Muddy apple cider, colored with as much head as you care to pour, lacy. Sour lactic acid bitter blood oranges, and flintstones multivitamins on the nose.The palate is sweet belgian yeast and candy sugar, malty bomb of crackers and caramel. Thick rich, creamy, liquid bread candy, a real treat as mouthfeel ranks pretty high.

Overall a fantastic beer. Wish more tasted this way.
