"Champagne ale brewed with Strissel Spalt French hops and orange juice"

Enjoyed at the brewery and now reviewed from a 1/2 growler

Pours heavily clouded, light and dull looking orange juice hued. Minimal head and leaves no film, collar or lacing.

Fruit juicy fresh nose, with oranges coming to mind.

Pleasingly fruity, with loads of dull orange juice notes, some lemon to add some zip. Carbonation on the low side, but not to minimal to take away from drinkability

Does have the feel and orange fueled flavor of a mimosa, which the CL crew let us know is what they were going after here....highly drinkable, quite different and a likely crowd pleaser (IE: my wife liked it)
