Reviewed from notes.
Can to tulip.
Appearance: pale yellow cloudiness with a finger's worth of white foamy head which dissolved nicely to leave some light messy lace
Aroma: peachy to apricot hoppy tones, subtle melon to grapefruity and lemon-like hoppy tones in the secondary; subtle clean malts underneath
Flavor: blends the prior noted aromas to a fine bitter to bittersweet sort of juiciness; finishes the same way
Texture: between light and medium bodied, somewhat sessionable; some smoothness to it, about medium level of carb (maybe just a wee bit high but I ended up accepting that (to an extent))
Overall: nicely done aromas and flavors - maybe just pull down some of that carb to make this even better.

Can (6/11/21) from Brewtopia. It's an opaque orange-light brown with light sparkle, finger-width white foamy head with poor retention and fair lacing. Aroma is strong apricot, grapefruit and melon. Taste follows aroma. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with smooth texture, average-to-lively carbonation and crisp finish with very mild bitterness. Overall, decent juiciness and fair complexity. A little too carbonated.

Pours hazy mango into a shaker. Bright white head with excellent retention recedes leaving spot lacing. Mango, pineapple and passion fruit aromas. Soft with sweet honey and caramel upfront turning to mild mango and passion fruit before the dry lasting tropical fruit skin finish.

16 oz. can. The mouthfeel is soft and has the juicy texture found in the style. Flavor show some light tropical hints with a good amount of grapefruit and citrus. Bitterness is low but here. Pretty well constructed and above average.
