Single finger head with decent lacing on a cloudy dull golden body. Aroma of guava, tangerine and kiwi which has a sweet aspect and a very earthy and musty side to it. I feel the tartness is at the perfect level. Occasion sniffing of this one gives a bit of a rank aroma but I have had this happen with others I have had in this style as well. The guava is there early in the flavor and is most tart up front moving to a more semi sweet lemon and tangerine citrus. Musty and earthy flavors throughout. Very true to the style with the guava coming through well enough to appreciate without dominating. Light body and moderate carbonation.

On tap. Fresh.

Appearance - 1.5" Bright white fluffy head on top of a hazy light straw body. Spotty lacing.

Aroma - Sweet (and sour) wheat, sweet fruit, grain dust.

Taste - Guava... Sour guava. Musty straw, sweetness.

Mouthfeel - Light lactic acidity, low to medium carbonation, light bodied, a bit dry yet piquant.

Overall - Great interpretation of the style. Would like to see this make a comeback only bigger. Like a barrel aged sour blond ale (with guava). This fruit works well with the style. IMO.
