Received in a trade and shared with JLindros.

A - Poured into a Kate the Great tulip a nice hazy golden orange hue with a thin white head that fades to leave light wisps and a thin blanket.

S - Aromas of nice light straw and good grassy yeasty notes. Lots of tart lemon aroma.

T - Taste is similar to the nose with nice bright fresh citrus and lemons. Powdered sweet tarts, really powdery tart flemmy acid and lemons.

M - Mouthfeel is lightly carbonated, body is incredibly thin and watery.

O - Overall this was a rather underwhelming beer. I think I expected more from this considering the fruit. Really unfortunate.

Thanks to rudzud
Light fizzy head, not much lacing and no retention, hazy golden yellow-orange color

Nose typical sour, blond malt little sweet doughy malt, funk and little souring bacteria, little fruity note, but lemony citrus rind thing

Taste sweet malt a bit, doughy wheat, into sour funk, stone fruit and a little tropical notes, sour and acidic but flemmy yet watery, a little flemmy, grassy too and some sour patch kids like thing with a weird lemony blended stone fruit, finishes tart fruity funky sour flemmy and sweet

Mouth is lighter bod, lighter carb too, thin watery feeling, big acidic flemmy

Overall eh, not great, thin watery and meh, nothing really special about it
