Can split at L6, thanks to Fergus, 22/08/19. Hazed golden orange with a decent off white cap. Nose is orange pith, grass, light pine, melon. Taste comprises mango flesh, orange pith, grass, toasted malts, pineapple. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spiked with balanced grassy hop bitterness. Decent.

22nd August 2019 Level 6 Bottleshare. Thanks to Fergus. Hazy gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, mildly dry, reasonable fine carbonation. Ripe malts. Grainy sweetness. Modest pine. Little ripe citrus. Not doing anything for me.

Poured from a 16 oz can dated May 3, 2019. Aroma has light tropical fruit notes with lots of grapefruit, other citrus, pine, rein and lighter dank notes. Light cracker malt notes and hints of oats. Pours a hazy, dusty, straw color with a large, thick, pillowy, white head that recedes slowly to a small film that lingers. High lacing and faint legs. Flavor has a medium light sweetness with some light cracker malt and notes of oat and spelt. Moderately high bitterness and faint alcohol spice. Moderate grapefruit, pine and resin notes with hints of tropical fruit and other citrus. Light dank, onion notes. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a nice IPA but far from my favorite. Good malt profile, but the hops are too bitter, dank and piney for my preferences.

At NYC Beer Week Opening Bash: pours hazy light orange with a white head. Aroma is ripe fruit, lime. Taste is low bitterness. Easy. Nice aftertaste.
