Three citrus-forward fruits combine on the nose and palate to create rich tropical fruit notes reminiscent of blood orange, nectarine and sauvignon blanc grapes while vanilla adds marshmallow-like flavor and body to this piquant American Sour Ale.

A: poured into a tulip to a hazy light gold topped by a pillowy two fingers of white head which fades quickly to a collar around the edge of the glass with minimal lacing
S: Smells of bright sourness, apricots, peaches, and mangoes.
T: Taste is clean sourness with some apricot, peach and mango flavors with a little cracker like malt presence. Swallow is creamy wheat, more sourness, and lingering peach, mango and apricot.
M: This beer is on the lighter side of things but has just enough body to keep from being watery. Carbonation is slightly prickly and the beer has a drying finish from the acidity.
O: Overall this beer is pretty nice. It has some good flavors and complexity that makes it enjoyable to drink. It is pretty balanced as well. It isn't super sour and it is not super sweet either, This one would be very enjoyable on a hot summer day and it drinks great during the spring as well.
