12.5% abv
$15.00 a bottle
Appearance: yellow crystal
Aroma: soon as I opened the bottle I knew I was going to
like it. First off I did not smell
straight out lemon. I am soooo tired of
lemon. A lot of the beers I had this
summer and spring had a lemon note, some stronger than others, and then when I
would have a white wine guess what note was prominent you got it lemon. So, I had to read this bottle first before
opening and I did not see the word lemon.
It did had lime but, no lemon. Back
to the aroma: tropical fruit all right; mango, white peach, Fuji apple,
pineapple acidity,
Flavors: apple, green apple, summer stone fruit, touch of
tangerine and a dose of lime.
Mouthfeel: crisp notes, there seems to be an ever so slight
watery edge that hits the tip of the tongue but, right after that ‘tip’ it is
nothing but dry baby.
To the Point: between the aroma and the flavors this is a
real treat. This would be good with
white fish. I love shark, tuna, and
swordfish and I think this would be good with the pineapple, mango, and ginger
sauce I make to put on my swordfish.
