Fairly hazy light golden coloured body with a very thick, yet super fast-fading soapy head, around seven centimetres tall at first that fades to around one to two centimetres in a matter of a few seconds, but leaves an ugly lace on the sides. Aroma of light oranges, lemons, very dry and grassy notes, some soft wheat and light candy elements with some sweetness in the nose, but it's mainly fruits here. Light to barely Medium-bodied; Rich oranges and slightly creamy flavours show at first with some mellow lactose noticeable and a dash of the floral and very grassy notes that add a very nice bit of complexity to the hoppiness. Aftertaste is fairly clean, with a good balance of malt and hops, some pleasant sugars and a soft lactose and wheatie bite that give this enough depth and complexity, but still has it show as a pretty easy-drinking beer. Overall, a nice option for those who like them lower alcohol, while enjoying lactose - a well constructed beer and recommended! I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from MOM's Organic Market in Alexandria, Virginia on 28-February-2021 for US$3,49, canned on 09-October-2020, sampled at my house here in Washington on 19-March-2021.

Canned 10/15, drunk 11/11/21. Medium-to-heavily hazy, brass-golden with a small, dense, white head. Oh yeah... dank, floral, cannabis-heavy nose with powdered sugar, leafy, woody greenery, soft pine and tons of tangerine and meyer lemon. Great mix of West Coast notes with New England. No booze, no twang, no flaw. Holy shit, i shoulda realized by the slight edge of bitterness associated with milk sugar fermentation, but damn, didn't realize this has lactose until I just read the can. Reeeeaaaalllly really nice for lactose, though it helps that it's fresh. I usually hate milkshake ipas, but this has such soft, fuzzy, dank/cannabis-like hops with no big pine, twang or heavy mango-papaya. A real pleasure to drink.

Can (2/17/20) pour from Worldwide Wine & Spirits. Appearance is cloudy, muted orange with effervescent sparkle (like a soft drink), 2-finger width foamy white head with fair retention and no lacing. Aroma is strong citrus, grapefruit, baked cracker and whiff of metallic-y herb. Taste is lemony citrus, grapefruit, herb, background wheat cracker. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with thin, frothy texture, average-to-lively carbonation and crisp, dry citrusy finish with moderate lingering bitterness. Overall, seems to check the right boxes and aroma and taste are reasonably strong but perhaps because the mouthfeel is pretty thin it doesn't pack the same pleasing punch as their others I've tried. Milk sugar is pretty irrelevant. More bitter than I'd prefer for the style.

Can, from Beer Run. Extremely hazy/juicy like orange juice with large foamy whitish head, wheaty citrus aroma, medium carbonation, medium bitter orange-unripe mango-pineapple taste, sweetish background, somewhat thick body, long citrus finish. Fulfilling and balanced.

Can at the apartments in Brooklyn - sourced from the local Key. Quite impressed by this, good juice, some melon and tangerine, light rindy bitterness, paw bread supports. Medium bodied with fine, massaging carbonation. Balanced finish, Moreno tangerine, melon, papaya, rind. Smooth and well rounded. Goes down real easy.

Can, thanks for sharing! Pours a hazy yellow with a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has tropical fruits, light grass, light citrus and a bit of sweet grains backing. Flavor has sweet grains and sweet tropical fruits with some citrus underlying.
