Pours a murky brown, slightly orange color, with one finger broad, bubbly head.

Smells very interesting, of juicy oranges, apple, papaya and spiced wheat. Has a sweet fruitiness to it, gently illustrated by a herbal hop presence. Reveals an aroma of ripe, almost overripe banana, resulting from this unique melange.

Has a medium carbonation, with a metallic minerality to it, revealing a mouthfeel which is partly fresh, partly dough.

Tastes of grassy hops, together with exotic fruit juice, then again blended with bitter, dry lemon peel, wet grass and spiced yeast, producing a soft mouthfeel. Its bitterness, as well as the beers sweetness enhances, as the beer produces a kiwi and lemon infusted toffee peak. During the finish, it developes a pine driven grassiness with a long lasting, dry finish.

Produces a very unique taste, between sweet and bitter, with a distinct hoppiness shining through. The beer has a sticky, slightly hot peak to it, overpowering the hops, which then return during the dry finish.
