Reviewed from notes.
The appearance was a cloudy burnt yellow to orange color with a finger’s worth of white foamy head that fell off at a moderate pace. Some light stringy lace here and there.
The aroma had a blend of sweet to bitter orange pulp and rind, some mango and a little bit of pineapple playing with some bubblegum and a little bit of citrus. Some sweet dough and white pepper slide in.
The flavor was semi-sweet through the pulp and rind. White pepper seemed to disappear here. Aftertaste was moderately sweet touching the finish in the same sort of way.
The palate was almost medium bodied, sitting just a touch under and having a pretty good carbonation. ABV felt fine. Somewhat dry along my tongue.
Overall, pretty good Belgian pale ale I could have again.

Sample draft at the source. Bright hazy yellow in color with lasting full foamy head. The aroma is of tropical fruits, oranges and even a nuance of the banana from the yeast.

Wow, just a ton of fruit in this brew. Some pineapple, melon, with some biscuit malt balance. Juicy mouthfeel, medium body, normal carbonation, yet slightly creamy over the palate. Finishes with stronger hoppy bite, yet still juicy. The yeast and hops are at a wonderful balance in the brew. Awesome!

Draught at the brewery, 4/29/16.
Mildly hazy with a bright golden to muted brass body topped by a small, yet modestly well-retained white head.
Very fruity in the nose, with the tell-tale spicy pineapple-meets-marajuana-and-meyer-lemon that is galaxy. Light banana and various other fruit esters from the yeast behind it (apples, strawberries lightly) give just enough impression of a Belgian ale while biscuits and light white bread sweeten the finish somewhat, as tangerine and other softer citrus notes linger. No alcohol or flaw.
Juicy again in the flavor with a tight carbonation and malty, but well-attenuated texture. Definitely not too sweet, though the esters and the juiciness from the hops give the false impression of it. No alcohol in the flavor however and light biscuit and cracker notes throughout, helping to keep things dry. Citrus and tropical fruit are met with a little bit of pine and moderate bitterness, on the finish.

Very cloudy, a nice orange. 1 finger thick lacing. Just on the aroma, this belgo series is really starting to come into its own. The galaxy hop shines and that’s a good thing. Very juicy some table sugar, sweeter notes, tropical and just little bit of oatmeal. The mouthfeel is ridiculous. Creamy, thick, juicy, just incredibly filling. Not even with a mouth swish. their carb system is on-point and the yeast is doing some great things.Taste, just fantastic. Galaxy shines, no over hopped medicinal or chemical tastes. just a great expression of the hop.
