Judge's Review: 91 Rating - Bizarre Gardening Accident Kumquat by Motorworks Brewing

Bizarre Gardening Accident Kumquat by Motorworks Brewing was reviewed per 2015 style guidelines of the Beer Judge Certification Program under category 29A Fruit Beer.

A big white head filled the glass and then fell off quickly. Lots of tiny bubbles were manifest throughout its hazy pale yellow color.

A distinct lemon aroma was immediately evident and melded with a citric tartness and other fruity esters to create a light and refreshing bouquet.

The flavor was sharply sour and acidic. A lemon rind character was dominant however it was pleasantly accompanied by less aggressive fruity notes that led into a dry finish.

The body was thin, non-astringent and highly carbonated with alcohol barely perceptible.

A crisp, low-gravity beer with a champagne-like quality that will refresh your palate on a hot summer day.
