A: Cloudy peach with a bright white bubbly head.
S: Loads of tropcial fruit.
T: Repeats the nose with the tropical fruit. Has a toasty and slightly smokey backbone. Even a bit of ashtray-like funk, which I don't dislike. Lots of paracetamol bitterness in the aftertaste. Not totally dry as there's a nip of syrup in the finish. Grapefruit surfaces after not long. There's also some pleasant dirt in the aftertaste, but a lot of Paracetamol. Burping it up there's quite a pronounced medicinal flavour like sandalwood or eucalyptus. Interesting.
M: Mouthfeel is almost sleepy, maybe because of the fluffy head.
O: This is one for the hop purists.
