The appearance is ultra-cloudy carrot orange. Pillowy pure white head. Self-illuminating. An ant farm of lace.
The smell is sour fruits, strong cranberry cocktail aroma. Prickly wheat base gives a dry wheat balance.
The taste is that dry wheat base with a bready yeast presence. Sour like a lambic, but also dry and grounded like a yeasty Belgian white. A little too mild, but pleasant.
The feel is a dry, bready wheat feel. A little like orange juice. It's a light and summery sour ale. Like a cranberry lambic but lighter and with a dry feel.
