Was lucky enough to be sitting at the tasting room the day they had the 5 gallon keg of this on tap. Was an experiment apparently, a good one at that.
Pours and orange-amber color with a cream head. Head falls slow, decent lace.
Smells of sweetened malts with that quality you would find in a good Cream Ale as well as some nice fruits.
Wow, this tastes great. Great Cream Ale body (one of the best I've had) with a fabulous, fruity, pomegranate taste. It worked, beautifully so.
Medium bodied mouthfeel and rather smooth. Simple carbonation.
Good stuff. Drank this most of the night and enjoyed the hell out of it. Sad I'll most likely never have it again, thankful that I did though.

Big Thanks to jdubfl for the share.
A: Pours a lighter shade of orange. Tall cream colored head. Nice retention with spotty lace.
S: Aroma of sweet bready malt, tropical fruit, and citrus.
T: Flavor is very similar. Lightly bready, citric, with a rather bold tartness. Guess that is the pomegranate.
M: Medium in body, smooth, tasty.
D: Good, peach is still my favorite of the treatments though.
