Bright saturated orange, slight haze, rapid carb trails, ample foam, arcs of lacing.

Initial aroma of barrel and fruit, light botanicals. As it warms up, THP takes over and it's all corn nuts and stale tortilla chips.

Taste is tart and fruity initially, ginger and lemon, with an odd lingering aftertaste of cheese and corn chips. The beer is well structured and carbed, just the smell and aftertaste are marred by heavy THP. Overall it's not one i'll soon return to, unless it's a new batch.
