Can. Unclear golden color with white head. Aroma is resinous, exotic fruits, white sugar. Taste is exotic fruits, resin, pale malts, not so much hababero, just a bit of a heat catch. Oily mouthfeel with medium carbonation. Not bad.

12 ounce bottle into pint glass; no bottle dating, but is a recent release. Pours moderately cloudy golden amber color with a small dense off white head with good retention, that reduces to a thin cap that lingers. Light spotty soapy lacing clings down the glass. Aromas of big papaya, peach, mango, orange zest, lemon zest, pineapple, honey, bread, floral, grass, and floral earthiness. Damn nice aromas with good complexity and balance of fruit, hop, and malt notes; with good strength. Taste of papaya, mango, peach, lemon zest, honey, bread, floral, pepper, and floral earthiness. Fair amount of pepper heat/spice on the finish; with lingering notes of papaya, mango, peach, lemon zest, honey, bread, pepper, and floral earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Good balance and complexity of papaya, pepper, hop, and malt flavors; with a great malt/spice balance and no cloying flavors after the finish. A little lacking in flavor robustness. Medium carbonation and body; with a smooth and slightly sticky mouthfeel that is good. Alcohol is well hidden with minimal warming present after the finish. Overall this is a very good spiced pale ale. Good balance and complexity of papaya, pepper, hop, and malt flavors; and very smooth to drink. A nicely enjoyable offering.

Nice spicy sweetness. Very solid

Bottle. Hazy straw body, thin to medium clumping cream head. Earthy, herbal, candy corn nose with diacetyl notes. Bready, caramely body with the same diacetyl notes that pretty much ruin the experience.

Sampled from the tap at the 15th annual MBGSF. Pours a hazy peachy gold with a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has light citrus and tropical fruit with a bit of pine and a hint of spice in the finish. Flavor again has light tropical fruit with a bit of bitterness with a light spice and grain backbone. Really drinkable.
