Aromas of passionfruit, mango, grapefruit, pine needles and cream. The combination of those flavours in the mouth is really nice. Even if the pine needles take over a fraction, they're so delicious that it doesn't matter.

Ridiculously hazy golden coloured body with a raw honey glow with gold, light blonde and even straw yellow tints, with a sliver of two milimetre tall off-white head. Aroma of alcohol, grass, hay, flowers and a lot of malty and funky yeasts. Medium-bodied; Rich malty flavours at first with light biscuits, grain and flowers, but also a good deal of alcohol and yeast funk with a dry and light citrus note towards the end with a lot of herbal punch throughout. Aftertaste is very, very dry, very malty and still showing a lot of alcohol and yeast notes without much hops, bitterness, alpha acids or much character. Overall, a fairly underwhelming beer - especially for the style, with no real hop elements or flavours and no bitterness, and only a dry, funky bite from the yeast and malt at the very end. Not worth trying to find or going out of the way for, at all. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Knightly Spirits in Orlando (Orange Blossom Trail), Florida on 19-April-2019 for US$4,74 sampled at home in Washington on Day #18 of my 2019 Advent Calendar, on 19-December-2019, just one day late.

Can. Hazy yellowish gold beer, good pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, semi dry, decent fine carbonation. Slightly soft and semi dry pale malts, a light sweetness. Smooth pine and mild bubbly hop spice. Smooth but light citrus. Some citric peel tang. Smooth finish. Pleasant and drinkable but never really takes off.
Grapefruit bitters and mango pineapple finish

Can, purchased from Dominion Wine and Beer. Consumed at home. Poured a hazy orange color with a medium sized, foamy white head. Really pleasant light citrus, touch of guava, mild tangerine. Nectarine. Touch a floral happiness, nice juicy. Not incredibly bitter.
Washington Poyet approved. Top beer!

Can, no date, drunk 2/10/18.
Ultra-pale straw golden. Bordering soupy with a white head fading quickly to a ring.
Strong Mosaic (nectarine, peach, papaya, pine) and trailing spicy Galaxy notes. Scallion, mango and lime with a bit of booze and/or sharp ester. A bit muddled, scallion-y and yeasty, as Foreign Objects has been thus far.
In the mouth it's a touch buttery with soft, lightly sweet honey. Drying out with spicy citrus, crackery grains and light cereal notes. Citrus is joined by hop bitterness and lightly sharp ester. Buttery scallion finish. Texture/attenuation/carbonation are on point, but the flavors/aromas and general execution of the beer (too much scallion, diacetyl, yeast, sharp esters, booze, bitter citrus) is way off.

One Mile House, NYC tap: pours hazy yellow with a white head. Aroma is tropical fruit, typical NE fruity aroma... taste is spicy, bitter and dusty. Lingering sharp aftertaste. Not really up my alley.
