Tamer strong ale (with quieted high gravity 8.5% alcohol volume) brings citric-spiced sweetness to grassy-hopped pining contrasting honey-roasted malting. Lemony pineapple, cherry, orange and grapefruit illusions get scattered through polite moderation. Oaken vanilla pinch wavers. A crisply approachable changeup differentiated from stereotypically stylish ethanol-fueled fare.
