Draft/Fest. A- Subtle floral hoppiness, oranges, tangerines, tropical fruits. A- Golden orange color, hazy liquid, white head. T- Orange slices, juicy. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, juicy finish. O- Delicious and juicy. This beer was like liquid mandarin orange slices. Didn’t get much in terms of pineapple but boy was the orange notes there and done so beautifully. Very solid beer.

Can thanks to Dak himself :). Pours hazy golden, large white head, dissipates slowly, good lacing. Aroma is certainly tropical, dank, grassy, floral, peaches. Flavor is light sweet, light bitter, juicy. Light bodied. A nice IPA that is clearly better than its ratings to date.

4oz pour at Max’s pours a hazy gold with some creamy, white head. Nose has lemon verbena, hand soap, mild pine. Flavor is straight lemon and lemon balm, opens up to honey and mild spice, some cheap grape juice. Strange finish, sort of oily.

Pour is a murky yellow with a barely there white head. Aroma is all pineapple and mango. Flavor is again more of a pineapple and other assorted fruit flavor. More than likely some mango and papaya were added as well. While this is a pretty good fruit beer I don’t really get anything from the hops. The fruit flavor overpowers anything the hop additions would have added. This is more fruit beer than IPA. While the fruit is flavorful and fresh I am kind of over the fruit added IPA’s. Just make an IPA with the hops givung off their own tropical fruit flavors.
