Johann, a young boy, is orphaned when his parents are eaten by a rhinoceros. Johann is consequently sent to live with his two aunts, Aunt Sponge and Aunt Spiker. These relatives are very cruel to him, and he is incredibly lonely, since he has no friends yet longs to play with children his own age. But on one particularly hard day, Johann’s luck changes: an Old Man appears in the backyard and offers Johann a packet of magical green objects… story ends there folks. We want to keep this PG-13 and y'all are a bunch of perverts. We know where you thought this was going.

Can shared by Stacey on 12/21/17.
Murky, copper-bronze with light strawberry blonde tints and a frothy, off-white head showing moderate retention.
Peachy-soft nose is quite juicy, as expected. Light, cream of wheat and vanilla from the malt and perhaps peach skin, sit in the background. Juicy mango and lime with a touch of pine but no real aggressive character and surprisingly low alcohol showing.
Dry, malty and with light but engaging carbonation in the mouth. It's a good deal of juicy peach, though there is a bit of twangy pine. Super soft, smooth texture and light vanilla creme-like character behind it. Thins out a touch on the end, with light alcohol cutting the texture, though it doesn't come across boozy. Pretty nice stuff and not a mess for its abv and adjuncts, though some parts of it are still a bit rough around the edges.

16 oz. can from the brewery, big thanks to Stacey on this huge Advent Calendar! Really impressed at this point. Hazy golden appearance, thin lasting white head. Aroma is bold peach, vanilla hints and mild pine. Attention Brewer! Attention Brewer! Does this IPA have lactose sugar in the recipe? People need to know.

Yep, another Tired Hands/ Omnipollo milk shake beer. Holy Christ this is sweet and creamy texture over the mouth. It is really hard to call this an IPA, almost no bitterness. Fruity and sweet with almost no hops. Yeah, this trend needs to end, "sooner rather than later"

Pours a very hazy, orange-yellow, with a huge, pillowy head that dissipates rather quickly. Aroma has citrus and tropical fruit, as well as strong peach notes. Flavor is citrus and tropical fruit, with some peach, some vanilla, a good amount of pine/spruce hoppiness. Fairly smooth, though with quite a bitter finish and aftertaste. This is a really good beer.

6/11/2016. 5 oz pour on draft at Aslin. As Mind The Hop w/ Peach and Vanilla. Guess they’re following Omnipollo’s lead on milkshake/smoothie IPAs. Murky brownish orange with off-white head. Aromas of floral, citrus, subtle peach. Tastes of floral, orange citrus, vitamin, light peach. Medium body with a semi-dry finish. Base beer is better. 7/2/7/4/14

2/21/2017. 16 oz can poured into a tulip. As Johann and the Giant Peach. Canned on 1/30/2017. Cloudy orange with off-white head. Aromas of citrus, stone fruit, tropical fruit, garlic and onion, vanilla. Tastes of citrus, tropical fruit, stone fruit, some vanilla, some garlic, light floral. Medium body with a dry finish. Much better than the original batch. 8/3/9/4/17
