L: hazy straw gold under a 1/2" off-white cap with fair retention. Some unsightly chunks bounce around the bottom

F: has a very creamy, luscious texture with a medium plus body and medium minus, very soft carbonation

Can. From Labirratorium. In Teku glass. Playing Avernum 4. High carbonation. The orange and honey notes are there but instead of improving the beer they seem to dull it. I can avoid thinking that with simply focusing on hops it would have been much better

Pours a slightly hazed gold with a sliver of cream colored head. Preetty good lacing & above average head retention
S: Citrus, grassyness
T: Bready dryness, blood orange & scosch of grassyness up front. More blood orange and dryness as this warms. Finishes with sweet and sour orange, plus a bit of bready dryness
MF: Light/medium body, moderate carbonation, decent balance
Drinks alright about, 9 weeks old, it would be nice to try fresher, but this will do as a baseline sample
