Effervescent golden ale with an aroma reminiscent of Kumquat Sherbert followed by a highly drinkable orange tang with hints of cleansing citrus.
Quat started out as a one release for the Dade City Kumquat festival and has since become a highly anticipated Kumquat harvest beer. This beer is typically released early February. Made using insane amounts of locally grown and picked Florida Kumquats.

The beer pours a light orange color with a fair amount of sediment floating around. The aroma is a pleasant citrus. The taste is citrus with a slight sour bite & it finishes clean. Furthermore, I have not tried the kumquat fruit but it seems like it would be a fruit that I would like. I have had a few bad beers from this brewery in the past but they have redeemed themselves with this warm weather fruit ale. If you live in the area then you ought to give this beer a try. Well now at least I can say that I was able to try a beer that had Kumquats added to it. Cheers! B

16 oz can from FL.
A: Effervescent, clear, pale golden body with a durable white head.
Aroma: fruity with kumquats and hints of orange peel and orange sherbet.
Flavor: kumquats up front (but lacking the intensity or tartness of pure kumquat) followed by light fruitbread with citrus notes. Kumquats reappear in the aftertaste.
Feel: light body and medium carbonation. Not watery.
