What Our Panel Thought

Aroma: “Big cinnamon nose with some sweet notes of roasted almonds crossed with Cinnabon and hints of Christmas. Mild acidity that’s tart and funky, light fruit, making up a surprisingly complex aroma.”

Flavor: “Assertive sourness on the initial taste, and the lemon citric acid flavors are substantial. Some tropical fruit and stone-fruit notes with a pleasant warming holiday spice, followed by hints of orange marmalade and lemon juice. The saltiness seeps into the finish, and the aftertaste is spicy and full of juicy fruit.”

Overall: “The warming spice notes are fun and complex—imagine a cinnamon roll with orange frosting and some added zest, then sucking most of the sweetness out. Incredibly complex and a unique, creative take on the style. Incredibly drinkable, and each sip leaves you begging for the next.”

What the Brewers Say

“Gose-style ale with valencia oranges, key lime, and Meyer lemon.”
