Poured into a 13 oz Alchemist Teku glass, fresh from a 16 oz can straight from the brewery. Pours a very attractive Auborn red, with a very attractive 2 finger stick slightly off white head, that leaves plenty of thin webs of lace, with fairly solid retention.
Smell is caramel, tangerine, toffee, pine, and grapefruit rind.
Taste is toffee, caramel, tangerine, pine, and a hint of grapefruit, the nose was a tad missleading.
Mouthfeel is medium, very gentle carbonation, maybe a little dry, and drinks plenty easy for 7% ABV.
Overall another very nice brew from this young brewery. Wanted a little more life and the flavor didn't live up to the nose.
