22 ounce bottle, no dating on it that I noticed. Served in an ATG chalice, the beer pours a mostly clear reddish/amber color with not quite an inch off-white head. Head retention and lacing are both good. The brew smells like hibiscus, bready malt, and tea. I think the taste is pretty much just like the aroma, with hibiscus, bready malt, tea, and some stone fruit noticeable. Mouthfeel/body is light/medium, it's smooth and easy to drink with a moderate amount of carbonation. A good refreshing brew, I enjoyed it! Definitely worth picking up if you haven't tried it before. $10.99 a bomber.

A 650ml bottle with no bottled on or best before date. Poured into a Lost Abbey teku glass.
Appearance: A clear copper amber colour with a slightly less than two finger off white head that dissipated fairly quickly and left only sparse lacing.
Aroma: Tea, sweet lychee, flowery with hints of biscuit malt (note: I do not know what hibiscus or Bai Jiguan tea smells or tastes like).
Taste: Sweet fruity like raspberry, light floral tea with a hint of biscuit malt and bitterness.
Mouthfeel: Light bodied with light carbonation.
Overall: Taste was a nice mix of fruity and floral. Carbonation was on the light side though which made it a bit tea like/watery. But still, it’s easy to drink and good on a hot day.
