Sucker Punch = 6/10
The nose is an odd mixture of red apples and dank. Despite a little thin mouthfeel there is ample tart tropical fruit flavours. Citra is very apparent with both aromas and flavours of lime, melon and pineapple. The tart and lactic character only seems to enhance these flavours. Sour and tart but not overpowering
Taste +3
Aftertaste +1 (quite clean, but still some residual tartness)
Alcohol Content 0 5.5%
Value +1 very tasty
Appearance +1 (fun label art, change of pace for Swan's)
Glassware: Teku. Only because it looks elegant and not everyone has one
Food Pairings: Poached lamb with tangerine glaze.
Cellar: maybe. Citra character will fade for sure, but will Brett take up slack?
