Cloudy, lemon-amber with thick head. Some lacing but not much.

Light malt, floral (but not certain it’s from hops), lemon, ginger. Interesting.

Crisp, sweet. Lemon, ginger, and alcohol.

Somewhat syrupy mouthfeel at times.

Oddly drinkable, given its peculiar-ness. I suppose it shouldn’t be any kind of surprise since Monticello went through 15 gal every two weeks.

First of four. Looking forward to the others, even the Root Beer.
