Wookie Jack #1 Data and Results

 Notes:

Descriptors: orange lifesaver, spicy candied orange

Off white hot chocolate head. Big hop aroma, I’m getting a spicy candied orange citrusy smell, almost like an orange lifesaver. Slightly aggressive alcohol warming taste. Overall decent, but nothing to brag about.
