Don't know what's going on here, but don't care for it much. Both the aromas and flavors have this strange unpleasant thing going on with rotten fruit and a little diacetyl. And I think I'm being generous with my scoring.

Another hazy Alesmith IPA with weird, musty off flavors. Good amounts of mandarin, peach, grapefruit, and citrus zest, but they're backed up by an unpleasant wet cardboard and balsa wood undercurrent, which really drags the pint down. Toss in some uncharacteristic astringency and you've got a very disappointing pint.

Can. Pours murky yellow, with a foamy white head. Muted tropical aroma. Taste of corn, tropical fruits, lager notes. Honestly, disappointing for an AleSmith beer.
