Can (7/20/20) pour from trade with AirForceHops--thanks, Chris! Appearance is opaque dark yellow-light brown (dark grapefruit juice) with no sparkle, finger-width foamy white head with poor retention and trace lacing. Aroma is strong pineapple rind, lime zest, grape. Taste is sweet grape, stone fruit, grapefruit, bubblegum. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with smooth texture, soft carbonation and sweet, dry finish with virtually no bitterness. Overall, strong flavor and taste though somewhat hard to pin down.

16 oz. can. Aroma is dank and earthy. Flavor carries over the dank herbal essence. Also shows a little bit of pineapple, lime zest, and grapefruit. Some good lingering citrus and pineapple. Good mouthfeel and zero bitterness. True to the style!

16 oz. Between five and six weeks old. Aroma is cantaloupe, sweet mango, lightly grainy. Pours murky yellow with a one finger bone-white head with good retention, leaving curtains of lace. Taste has a building pithy bitterness and lots of juicy sweetness. Flavors of cantaloupe, sweet mango, lemon peel. Perfectly carbonated creamy mouthfeel. Almost too much sweetness, so I'm glad that bitterness is there to temper it. Pretty good overall.

Can. Hazy amber beer with a cream head. Light tropical fruit aroma. Tropical fruit and grapefruit rind flavor. Medium bodied. Good bitterness. tropical fruit and grapefruit rind linger.
New Revision drop at RBS. Juicy, hazy, easy drinking. Refreshing after eight plus hours of putting out beer.

16oz can from Brewers Haven. Hazy yellow golden pour, lasting creamy head. Citrusy aroma with light tropical notes. Taste adds some tropical and stone fruits to the citrus, enhanced by a creamy mouthfeel. Smooth and tasty.
