Pours a gorgeous hazy orange/gold with a thick plume of tight white bubbles that retain well and leave lots of lacing. Absolutely gorgeous!
Wow! The aroma explodes from the glass with huge notes of clementine, mandarin orange juice and zest, honeysuckle, pineapple, passion fruit, and perhaps mango and guava as well! Just an absolute fruit bomb, but with some nice crackery malt notes as well! The nose is second to none!
The flavor is more of the same, especially the clementine and orange zest! Passion fruit in the middle, and a very nice firm drying bitterness on the finish that keeps you coming back for another sip. This is just supremely drinkable!
The mouth feel is just about perfect for the style; medium in body nicely carbonated, sweet at first but firmly bitter at the end, with a bone dry finish!
I am simply blown away! I've had ~150 Kane beers at this point, probably over half being hoppy offerings, and this is quite possibly the best they've done in the style! I could drink this all day every day!
