12oz can. Solid new school IPA. Good balance, pleasant juiciness, a touch of bitterness. Some peachy Mosaic-esque touches, other juicy tropical tones as well. All around enjoyable.

Can from Holiday Market. Pours a clear gold with a finger of white foam. Aromas of pine, durian, papaya and mineral. Dry on the palate with citrus and more papaya notes. Lingering pith and pine with dried papaya skin.

Nice beer. The aromas are interesting mix of fresh citrus, with some melon, floral and dank hops plus wet grain and cut grass. Flavors are a lot like nose, lightly sweet up front with great carbonation body and growing bitter finish. Good drinking beer.

12 ounce can from Tadych's Marquette, 8/31/20. Hazy orange, large foamy white head, good retention. Aroma of dank, resin, pine, green, some grainy malt. Taste is dank, lemon, orange, tangerine, cactus, passionfruit, pale malt. Medium bodied, lingering bitterness. Love it. Hops in a new beer.

On tap at the brewery. Pours a slightly hazy yellow with a tan head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has bountiful sweet citrus with sweet grains underlying. Flavor has sweet citrus with a bit of orange peel and a sweet grain backbone.
