A: Pours a murky dark copper in color with moderate amounts of fine active visible carbonation rising quickly along the edges of the glass and moderate burnt orange + amber + ruby red + dark golden yellow colored highlights. The beer has a two finger tall dense sudsy foamy off-white head that reduces to a large patch of slightly mottled very thin film covering the entire surface of the beer and a medium thick ring at the edges of the glass. Moderate to significant amounts of lacing are observed.

S: Moderate aromas of citrus/grapefruit, citrus/orange, herbal, and dank resinous hops over the top of moderate aromas of biscuit + caramel + toasted malts with a hint of caramel sweetness.

T: Upfront there are moderate flavors of biscuit + caramel + toasted malts with a hint of caramel sweetness. That is followed by slightly stronger than moderate flavors of citrus/grapefruit, citrus/orange, herbal, and dank resinous hops which impart a light amount of bitterness which lingers slightly leaving lingering citrus + herbal hop flavors.

M: Just shy of medium bodied with moderate amounts of carbonation. Light amounts of soft/fluffiness mid-body. Light amounts of dryness in the finish.

O: Easy to drink with well hidden alcohol and a decently soft mouthfeel. Enjoyable - kind of like a NE IPA but without the juiciness (there is the mouthfeel and the overall low level of bitterness).

Thickly opaque dark orange with a thin while film leaving rictor chart lacing.

The medium body has a soft fulfilling fizzy froth delivering biscuit, grapefruit, orange and a light vegetal, weedy dankness that's a little peppery and herbal. Wheat emerges as it warms and the finish is tingly, slightly prickly and semi-dry.
