Draft at Dominion Wine & Beer's upstairs bar. Poured a very slight hazy yellow color with a small off-white head. Aroma was super juicy, Tangerine. Orange. Clementine. Light boozy character in here. Mild resin. Really nice.

Can, undated, drunk 11/18/18.
Pours a distinctly clear brass. Small, white head steadily fades to a ring.
Smells much more Mosaic-forward than either of the other two hops though there's a bit of sweat and cat from the Citra (I think) that I haven't smelled in a while. Mosaic shows nectarine and pine with mushy white grape that seems to pick up the worst qualities of Galaxy. That hop doesn't really reveal itself. Maybe there's light lime and a touch of spice, but none of the rich mineral or white wine; certainly no passion fruit or mango. It's not resinous, but there's a hint of scallion lingering. Malts seem well-attenuated, staying safe with cracker and biscuit and light honey as no alcohol ever arrives.
In the mouth it's more of the dull Mosaic and sweaty Citra. Vegetal and scallion-heavy with, at least, good attenuation and no booze or resin. Just never gets bright or even bitter enough. Scallion and mushy honey build heavily on the finish with white bread, sour papaya and intense white grape lingering. Soft and a bit too sweet. Love these guys, but this one didn't do it for me.
