Pint with lunch somewhere in Bar Harbor Maine with the wife. Pale orange gold, frothy stiff pour. Orange juice pulp, a bit yeasty. Orange pump juice, pith salad, creme, light veg. Frothy, low but consistent carb. A touch boozy. Felt like I saw this option in every other restaurant. Didn't feel it. Small pours would be easier.

Can, undated, drunk 6/16/18.
Pours an eerie grey-olive. Very pond water-looking. White head fades to ring quickly.
Smells ok, though. Tangerine juice and some butter. Orange and lime rind. Not all that aromatic, somewhat bland and nutty at points.
Some honey, sweet dough, lime and light mango, in the mouth. Moderate-to-low bitterness. Soft, at least, and dry, with engaging carbonation. Oily and very yeasty and somewhat unsettling on account of the color. Bland and nutty, not all that much flavor. Otherwise it's competent and unexciting.

16 oz. can purchased at Spruce Creek Provisions. (I believe I single handily keep this beer store in business) Stimulating the economy one beer at a time.... Appearance is a cloudy orange with average carbonation level. Aroma is moderate pineapple, grapefruit, and the faintest grass hint.
The largest character of this brew is the citrus. The citrus and pineapple is so bold it is hard to pick out the Mosaic in here. When it warms a touch of grass or pine. The malt bill is just enough to balance and does not come off with too much caramel. (thankfully). Bitterness doesn’t overwhelm or it is hidden pretty well. Overall, this was a nice surprise because I wasn’t expecting much here based on the other brews I have sampled from this establishment. Worth a try if you are in or around Maine.
