Bottle. Just hazy yellowish gold with a modest white head.3+ Aroma of mango skin, mandarin, grapes, grass. Quite sweet with a creamy texture and a finish where resin and some spices emerge on top of the fruit flavours. I didn't think the spices really went but liked the softness of the mouthfeel and the firm bitterness. Perhaps a little strong for what it offers, but fair enough.

Bottle from Total Wine in Sacramento, CA. Pours translucent gold with a creamy white head. Aroma is citrus, and there’s a hint of dankness in the depths. And some non-tropical fruit. Med body or so. Flavor is citrus, earth, white berry and something that "tickles". Another mystery. Pepper? Doesn’t seem so. Anyway it’s fairly mild, but tastes ok. Seems to have the level of bitterness I can associate with dank, but that term doesn’t seem to apply. Ah well.

20 oz nonic pint at Drake’s Dealership in Oakland, California. The pour is a hazed orange golden with a well formed one inch off white head. The aroma is wheat grain malt, citrus hops, and full rounded melon fruit. The taste has a lot of fresh fruit flavor - the melon, citrus orange, even berries as others have mentioned. The fresh hop is balanced nicely with the wheat, and the rye is present in the flavor. Quite a bit going on in this one. The palate is medium bodied, soft carbonation, unfiltered mouthfeel and a round fruity softly bitter finish. Fun beer, tasty.

Pour is a cloudy yellow with a large white head. Aroma is a nice berry and melon hop. Flavor is a super juicy fruit with some citrus and melon. Super fruity with almost no bitterness and finishes more dry and dusty. Pretty good stuff here. This was bottled 32 days ago and drinking just right.

From tap at Drake’s Dealership, Oakland. Hazy golden color with white head. Malty and hoppy aroma, citrusy fruity, floral, grassy, tropical fruits, spicy, wheat. Sweet and bitter taste like aroma. Medium oily body with soft carbonation.

Draft. Amber beer with a cream head. Yest and spice aroma. Citrus and light spice flavor with light wheat. Medium bodied. Good bitterness. Grapefruit and light spice lingers with light wheat.

On tap at the Dealership. It pours a clear light golden yellow color with a big white head. The aroma is strong with weed and grapefruit. Maybe a touch of flowers. The flavor is strong with spicy hops and weed. A little breadiness. Dry. The weed notes stand out. It has a nice snappy finish. Pretty good stuff.
