On tap at the brew-pub, I don't know if this is a one-off or if they will bring this back, but it beats Pilgrim's Dole for sure!

Slightly hazy perfect amber with a thin head that leaves a lily pad of film and ring. Smells are very light, slightly sweet and tangy. I would like more nose.

Tangy, vinous, sweet wheat-wine. Starts with vinous notes of white grapes and hard apple cider. Wheat and biscuity malt notes arrive and ride underneath the whole job. A slight bitter bite with a hint of sour twang before a bicuity bready malt tone finishes up. Very tasty, I very much wish they would start producing this, even if only for a limited pub offering!

Light body is pleasant with delicate carbonation. Very drinkable, even for the 8%.
