look: 4 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 3.75 | feel: 4 | overall: 3.75
Appearance: Arrives cloudy with a lemony honey hue: the modest head fades to a ringlet with just a few splashes of lace

Smell: Bitter hop tones and Belgian yeast blend with the paw paw, expressing a ripe banana character

Taste: Bread forward with the rustic bitter hops flavors exploding; the paw paw appears underneath along with some kiwi

Mouthfeel: Medium bodied and creamy, with moderate carbonation

Overall: Interesting concept but the paw paw and the hops are clashing with the bitterness winning out; I would have preferred it the other way around
