Urban Artifact Teak

“A dark straw-gold beer with a white head. The aroma has a strong pineapple character, some hints of citrus and sour grain, some guava and a touch of floral sweetness as it warms. The flavor starts off with a fresh pineapple flavor but then suggests citrus and sour, all fresh, nothing artificial. Some pleasant hints of burnt sugars and lime peel. The beer itself is tarter than expected, but the many fruity flavors—guava, lemon, white grapes, lime, ruby-red grapefruit, pears, and pineapple—keep it all together and deliver a boatload of complexity. The finish is dry but refreshing. The key lime presents itself more in the aftertaste but doesn’t steal attention away from the fresh-fruit and sour-grain flavors. The slightest smidge of warming alcohol presence.”
