Whitish cloudiness on a straw colored brew. One-finger head initially but it dies to a thin film of bubbles. There are a couple of streaks for lace.
Clean, very pale malt aroma initially. There's a definitive floral hop nose, but the overall effect is quite mild.
Strong palest of malts beginning flavor with notable alcohol. Strangely sweet with overtones of pineapple and other tropical fruits. The hop is strong but it doesn't bite, leaving a balanced finish and short aftertaste. Very full-bodied with a moderate level of carbonation. Overall, an interesting and unusual (in a good way) brew.
