Notes:

This has been in the bottle 2 months as of this review. 12oz bottle poured into a Shaker at 47° Color is a bright amber with good carbonation and a rocky off white head. Aroma is caramel sweet with a fruity back note. It has a medium body with a creamy mouth feel. Flavor is a bit funky with a sweetness that gives tropical notes with toffee, but then orange or tangerine comes in and this doesn't meld right. In the aftertaste the tangerine stands out a bit more with a mild bitterness. Overall not the best mix, next time I'll use a hop that gives basic hop spice rather than the tropical of the Mosaic and a Belgian yeast for more dark fruit esters.
