This is a seasonal offering from Vancouver, BC area craft brewery Dead Frog Brewery. Dead Frog has only been around since 2006 but has gotten quite a following in that short time.
It has a wonderful amber colour with a nice light foam head.
Its aroma is filled with mandarin and citrus, with undertones of the hops usually associated with an amber ale.
It starts surprisingly clean, with only hints of citrus, hops and malt. The citrus then comes to the forefront and fades away with the hops taking over and finishing clean with a lingering maltiness.
It feels smooth and light in the mouth.
Overall, this is a nice change, light and refreshing in contrast to most of the other winter seasonal beers. It is easily refreshing and clean enough that I would probably enjoy it in the summer.
