Pours a clear medium amber with a thin head that disappeared almost immediately leaving just a small swirl of foam around the edges of the glass.
Aroma is yeast and fruit. The fruit reminds me of sweet tart cherries. A bit of floral coming out as well.
The first sip of this beer and I am a bit disappointed. A nice flavor, but very mild compared to the aroma. I am again getting the tart sweet cherry or apple flavors mixed with a light spice and a floral finish on the palate.
Light body with medium carbonation. Watery and slightly dry on the finish.
Overall I like this beer, but wish that the flavor had a more robust character similar to the aroma. I am enjoying this beer and appreciate the "different factor" in this Goose Island brew. The fruit flavors are refreshing. Give one a try!
