Muted orange haze. Nose is chalky lemon lime and some resin. Taste is lemon and lime rind, grapefruit, aloe, and earthy dankness. Soft, creamy mouthfeel. Nearly no lingering bitterness. Very pleasant.

6 weeks old. Can to wine glass.

L: Pours a full and hazy yellow with a pillowy white head that leaves a good amount of lacing. Quite some yeast sediment in the bottom of the glass.

S: Fresh citrus fruits (mainly lemon and orange), white grapes and white peach. Slightly floral, dank and grassy.

T: Yellow citrus fruits up front which are then overtaken by ripe white grapes. Interestingly the ripeness of the grapes doesn't lead to a sticky sweetness but rather to a winey fermented booziness. Medium sweet body with a slightly zesty, bitter finish.

F: Full and juicy, yet so smooth, soft and creamy. Low carbonation. Minimal hop bite.

O: Wow, this is spectacular. Beautifully crafted and immensely complex. I'm a bit speechless right now, to be honest. What a beer this is!
