NOTE: This was listed on Cigar City's board as 5.8% ABV. A collaboration with Boulevard, described as a highly-hopped wit fermented with Cigar City's house British ale yeast.
A: Hazy light yellow, with a finger's worth of white head and moderate visible carbonation.
S: Tropical fruits, resin and citrus (coriander?). Biscuity malts, with a little bit of wheat grist character. Also yeasty - possible fruit esters as well.
T: Tropical fruits, pine, grassy and some fleshy fruit (pear?). Yeasty, grainy biscuit malts, wheat grist. Some grapefruit pith and bitter mango at the end.
M: Medium body and a chewy mouthfeel. The alcohol is well-hidden.
O: I thought this was pretty darn tasty and easy to drink. Style-defying perhaps, and not something I'd grab every day. But I'm glad I had a chance to try it.

Poured a cloudy golden body with one finger head and lace patches.
Has a lightly hopped aroma with some citric notes, and there is a little bit of clove-like spices in the aroma as well.
Beer is light bodied, smooth, little bit of yeast gives off touch of sweetness and helps keep beer smooth and easily passable.
Hops are noticeable but minimal and balance well with a little bit of spiciness.
Not most flavorful white IPA but hops are there and so are "white beer" elements and it is a pleasant sipper.
