750 mL bottle into a MT tulip glass
Straw-yellow appearance with a light, bubbly effervescence. Funky, leathery bouquet with plenty of citrus notes to accent the aromas.
The added Meyer lemons are prominent on the palate, followed quickly by distinct nuances of tobacco and medicinal cherry. Flavors swarm all over the place, not very cohesive. Fairly short finish, with lingering sour lemon.
Not really sure what this beer is trying to do. Straddles a couple of different styles, but doesn't deliver the 'refreshing' experience the brewers intended.
