Cloudy, and pale. Not much head. A lot of lupulin powder on the aroma, veering towards dank mosaic. On the palate, there's a lot more fruit than the aroma hinted, guava and mango. Low to moderate bitterness, with again a lot of tropical fruit character. A bit yeasty, with only a touch of malt character. There's a bit of grapefruity brightness in the finish, too. So it smells a little bit nondescript but the flavours are really bright and appetizing.

Oxford tastings, can
Murky pale blond color. Very juicy, with lean body, mild bitterness, just a hint of dank hops. Fresh, excellent.

16 oz. can, pours a cloudy faded yellowy blonde with a tiny white head. Aroma is quite dank, with light citrus, dank piney hops, and dry biscuity malt. Flavour follows accordingly, with dry piney hops, moderate dankness, light citrus and dry biscuity malt base. Moderate bitterness on the finish, with pithy stone fruits. Excellent.

Tall can (thx, Eric D.!). Pours a murky blonde (hm!) with a white head. Aroma is slightly sweet, with lots of citrusy notes and some tropical fruits. Taste is dusty, dank, with lots of candied citruses bitterness. Really full-bodied. Interesting and very unusual. It doesn't taste old, but those candied citruses that usually present in the American barleywines are crazy here. Maybe even a bit too much than I would prefer, but the beer is good though.

Sample from growler at the ’Smoked Meats and Beer’ tasting on 05/27/2017. Hazy orange color with a medium white head that dissipates steadily to an outer ring. Partial rings of lacing. Passionfruit, hops and malt aroma. Medium body with flavors of tropical fruit, herbal hops and malt. The finish is moderately bitter with a fruity hop aftertaste. Good beer all around.

A light golden orange. One finger head. Smells like tangerines and skunks. A spicy zesty mouthfeel. Finishes oily. Tangerine, pepper honey, pine, loads of orange but a very dank beer

Tap, at the brewery. Super hazy, milkshake yellow. Thin, tight, sticky, white head. Nose has a pile of ripe mango, candied citrus, and slick resin, all really well balanced. Taste is fresh, citrusy, pulpy sweet, with a hop oil bitterness that works well. Creamy, massaging mouthfeel. ABV is totally hidden. Soft, juicy, pulpy bitter finish. Wow.
