Pours clear brown, orange and red very nice, small tan head that stays.
Smells of spice and tropical fruit. Earthy, spicy hop aroma, yeasty alcohol.
Mouth feel, very full and chunky, carbonation cleans out cheeks.
Flavor, rich fruity cherry or pear, hint of roasted nuts and malt. Yeast dominates here, very nice with the roast malt edge.
Finish, deep yeast fruits, brace of hop bitterness at very end.
Overall, too much carbonation. Something up front that's harsh, hop bitterness? Could tone down hop bitterness, turn it up at the end for more pine. Could use more crystal flavor, could increase caramel by 1/2. Reclaim on this yeast may not be feasible, see how quad comes out.
