Castle Island Vern
"Aroma: tropical mango, pineapple, candied lemon peel, Sunkist soda pop, hints of coconut and curry. Smooth but complex flavor—bright caramel sweetness, good hop bitterness—going clean and fairly dry in the finish. Rounded, with a touch of lingering sweetness. Maybe a bit thin in the middle, but pleasant and easy to drink."
