Reviewed from notes.
Pours a moderate golden color with a white head and some good lacing. Nice retention. Nose brings light fruits as well as pepper and spice. The taste isn't quite as nice as the fruit doesn't really come through over the yeast, which brings clove and some pepper as well as other spicing. Feel is nice with a good body and nice carbonation. Drinks quite well and was one of the more impressive things I had from them.

Served in a goblet.
Pours a clear golden straw with a minimal amount of white bubbly head that hardly laces at all. The nose holds strong fruity notes (particularly grapes, strawberries, and grapefruits), with a pleasant floral motif underlying them. In the taste lie hints of cloves, pepper, the fruits from the nose, a sliver of bitterness (hardly there), and a bit of malty sweetness ties everything together. The medium body, light tongue coverage, and distinct smoothness lead to a considerably high drinkability.
