Draft at Jack's Abby. Poured a very, very slightly hazy golden yellow color, but otherwise clear. Aroma was tropical fruits, fruity, with a distinct peppery note to it. Pretty tasty.

Can - hazy light orange - relatively sweet beer, which works somewhat in light of the hop character heavy on the tropical fruit and white grape character - peppery finish with moderate alcohol warmth - stays fairly sweet throughout.

12 oz goblet at Apres Handcrafted Libations in Breckenridge, Colorado. The pour is a hazed orange with a one inch white head that is lasting. The aroma is tropical fruit hops, honey sweetness, melon and a bit of dank funk. The taste is clean and bright - the topical melon fruit hops up front, followed by a honey sweet maltiness finishing with some of the dankness. The palate is medium bodied, active carbonation with a bitter hop finish that shows a hint of alcohol warmth. Nice DIPL, well executed.

Can from WhichCraft. Big Kiwi hop nose, lots of cat piss, grapefruit, pineapple. Light, crackery malt character. Hazy golden orange color with a low, fine head. Super juicy flavor, great fruity hops with a rather faint lager character (drank after Post Shift). Medium bitterness and a rather dry, crisp finish. Alcohol is hidden rather well. Great one.

Can pour into nonic pint glass from Epsom Circle Market. Appearance is cloudy yellow-orange with fine light and dark particulates, decent sparkle and finger-width fizzy white head with fair retention and light soapy lacing. Aroma is strong tropical fruits, citrus with light pine. Taste is brief, initial sweet tropical fruit followed by strong resin bitter with grapefruit and a light herbal quality. Palate is medium bodied with thick texture, average carbonation and mix of sweet and bitter, crisp, dry finish. Overall, there are bold flavors and aromas here with a decent amount of complexity. Nice.

16 ounce can. Hazy deep gold color. Large frothy white head. Nice clinging lace. Big dank hop aroma with citrus notes. Flavor upfront is intense complex hops. Resiny, dank and juicy. All this attention to hops is clearly evident. Notes of mint, lemon verbena, Thai basil, grapefruit and a late grab of toasted malt. Warming alcohol notes. Quite tasty, this one.
