A: Copper amber color, clear with an off-white soft meringue like foam head.
S: Mostly my impression is strawberries or papaya or melons. There's some low notes of citrus, probably grapefruit but very subtle.
T: Not sweet, more toffee like is the malt presence. Then come the fruit flavors, initially I think papaya and melons, but then I am unsure if it's more strawberry. All of the malts and fruit blend well. A little hop bite creeps in at the end, but not very pronounced. Very middle of the road in mouth-feel, and leans ever so slightly towards dryness.
O: At first seemed dry and mixed flavor notes. Intriguing but not sure it was loveable. Upon repeated tastes the variety of fruit flavors melded into a strawberry like single note and the great balance of the beer seemed more apparent. This beer was never sweet but the malt was in perfect harmony like some English semi-sweet and salty toffee. Very solid and individualistic. I really think this is one of the small Midwest breweries to watch.
