A: Pours a relatively clear golden honey in color with moderate amounts of active visible carbonation rising from the bottom of the glass and moderate copper + burnt orange + apricot + peach + pale golden yellow colored highlights. The beer has a two finger tall dense creamy sudsy foamy off-white head that slowly reduces to a handful of small patches of medium thick film surrounded by a large patch of very slightly mottled thin film covering the remainder of the surface of the beer and a medium thick ring at the edges of the glass. Moderate to significant amounts of lacing are observed.
S: Moderate to strong aromas of juicy citrus/grapefruit + tropical/mango + tropical/passionfruit + floral + pine hops over the top of moderate aromas of biscuit + pale + wheat + oat malts with a light to moderate amount of sugary sweetness. Moderate aromas of apricot + guava.
T: Upfront there are moderate flavors of biscuit + pale + wheat + oat malts with a light to moderate amount of sugary sweetness. That is followed by moderate flavors of apricot + guava. Finally there are moderate to strong flavors of juicy citrus/grapefruit + tropical/mango + tropical/passionfruit + floral + pine hops which impart a light amount of bitterness which fades away quickly leaving moderate lingering tropical hop flavors.
M: Medium bodied with moderate amounts of carbonation. Initially slightly crisp with a light to moderate amount of slightly creamy soft/fluffiness mid-body and a very light amount of dryness in the finish.
O: Easy to drink with well hidden alcohol and a slightly crisp + slightly creamy soft/fluffy mouth feel. Enjoyable with lots of tropical + citrus + floral + a touch of pine hops as well as apricot + guava. I could easily have a couple of these but I have a feeling it would really sneak up on you.
