Canned. Slightly hazy gold pour. A bit of mango. Not too heavy. A nice entry in a crowded field.

Clear golden and peach coloured body, about 50 per cent opaque, with a very thin, off-white head that fades relatively quickly and leaves just about nothing on top. Aroma of oranges, light mangoes, some caster sugar, grass and a bit of bitter resin from the hops. Medium-bodied; Odd very funky and vegetal malt notes that are bitter, off-flavoured and showing more brocolli and cabbage than even specialty grains or rye - these are funky and overpowering any hop flavours, bitterness and all available sugars, that seemed plentiful in the nose, but have been pressed under the funky malts. Aftertaste is rich, but all from malt and funky grainy flavours with little else, aside from alcohol, that shows at least 8 per cent alcohol. Overall, not such a great beer, despite the relatively nice nose, the rest goes downhill quickly. This is worth passing over entirely, as it doesn't offer anything worthwhile that you can't get from a better alternative in the style. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from the Department of Beer and Wine in Alexandria, Virginia on 18-September-2020 for US$4,22 sampled at my house here in Washington on 07-October-2020.

On tap at Alewife. Pours slightly hazy gold. Watermelon, tangerine, strawberry, pineapple juice, perfume. Good full body. Odd, but not unpleasant.
