Pours a hazy pale honey color with three fingers of gorgeous moussey white head that is there throughout. Nose is underripe stonefruit, overripe citrus and a sugary-boozy background. Bitter orange potpourri spice from the alcohol.
The taste is big, creamy and uber-sweet. Gone is the underripe fruit. Fermented orange and peaches with some grassy green tea-like vegetal character to it.
It is big and round and sticky and a little warming. Long lasting boozy, astringent, hop-saturated finish.
This is a most excellent and very interesting beer.
The beers I've had with these new-fangled hop varieties (Nectaron and Superdelic) have all been pretty hit or miss. This is the first beer I've had that really seems to nail it. That said, the hop profile does have a unique kind of vegetal character that is bitter-without-being-bitter. I like it, but it is definitely a little different.
When I drink it without thinking it is very good and maybe a little odd. When I drink it and really concentrate, it is kind of a rollercoaster of rich citrus and stonefruit, boozy, esters, and hoppy uniqueness (tea/earthy bitterness). There is also a kind of creaminess to the taste and finish that just gets better the more I drink it. Tasty. Cute label, too!
