Received as an extra in a trade.
A - Poured in to my Duvel tulip a nice hazy hue with a slight reddish tinge in the center. Nice one finger head fades very, very slowly to leave a thick, dense blanket.
S - Aromas of nice orange juice and peel, little bit of generic tropical notes, flashes of faint red berries but it's super subtle. Not much in the way for lactose or vanilla.
T - Taste is similar to the nose. Nice citrus peel, maybe a little tangerine, really subtle tropical notes, flash of peach, Little bit of seedy red berries but not much flavour from them. The vanilla is almost nonexistent as is the lactose. Finish is nicely bitter with a lingering red berry flavour as well.
M - Mouthfeel is nicely carbonated, crisp, alcohol hidden nicely.
O - Overall this was a bit of a confusing beer. Has various additives in it, but I think the hops might overpower them. There is next to no vanilla or lactose. Wish this delivered on it's bill.
