Review and Tasting


Sampled on 01/08/2016

Appearance:

(sample bottle best before 15/Feb/17) Clear (with yeast sediment depending on pour), coppery amber with thick retentive beige head and moderate lacing.

Aroma:

Ripe mango and pineapple with earthy pine hops.

Taste:

Full-bodied. Resinous pine balances sweet tropical fruit with dry earthy notes and sour zesty grapefruit.

Aftertaste:

Dry with steely pine hops and earthiness.

Overall:

Superbly balanced and flavoursome with sweet ripe tropical fruit countered by dry resinous pine, steely and earthy hops, along with sour zesty grapefruit. Complex and delicious.
