16 oz can from Paragon, 1/24/25. Fully hazy yellowish-orange color with an off white head. Fairly strong lacework. Boozy sweet, candied fruit, too much sugar. Cloying. Overly sweet and overly boozy for my preference.
New scores: 8 / 6.5 / 6/ 6 / 7

Can - cloudy orange with a thick, well-sustained head - nose and flavor have a ton of pineapple, melon, mango - peppery hop bitterness materializes late - fairly sweet, but balanced decently by the hops - still kinda tastes more like a hoppy blonde barleywine at times, though - some honeyed fruit, pear - a lot going on, actually.

16oz can pours out hazy golden topped with a white head. Nose is citrus pine hops with a sweet tropical fruit kick. Taste is more of the nice sweet tropical fruit hops and a citrus pine bitterness to balance it out.

Pours hazy like a NEIPA, although the can states it's just a double IPA with Indian cane sugar. It also says it's quintuple dry-hopped but I wouldn't say much comes through apart because of the sweetness in the aroma. The initial flavour is also very sweet and it goes through to the aftertaste. A very heavy beer, heavy mouthfeel, and alcoholy. Too surypy for my taste. Some mango and pineapple. Medium-low carbonation.

Draught @ Ginger Man NYC (2/5/20). Extremely hazy dark yellow, looks like apricot juice, foamy light beige head, very faint apricot aroma, medium carbonation, medium bitter apricot-mango taste with strong alcohol undertones, full body, long finish with alcohol aftertaste. The high alcohol content escapes the flavor.

Pours a hazy, peach-orange, with mid-sized, lasting head. Aroma has a strong citrus presence (oranges), with some grass and other floral notes. Flavor is pretty sweet, with orange and some tropical flavors. Alcohol content is fairly well-hidden--no boozy flavors here.

Pounder: Very pithy grapefruit and papaya nose. Cloudy amber, medium head, nice lace. Apricot, sumac, orange. Full body, soft carbonation, warm. Big DIPA. I'm not fond of this hop bill.
