Reviewed from notes.
Can to snifter.
Appearance: pale copper cardboard looking haziness with a finger and a quarter of white foamy head which dissipated nicely but barely left any laec
Aroma: mixed citrusy to mango-like with a super subtle piney hop tone then some light biscuity malts
Flavor: meshes the prior noted aromas to a fine sweet hoppy to bittersweet malty quality; finishes mixed citrusy to piney with a touch of dryness
Texture: light to medium bodied - maybe a touch closer to medium; sessionable; fairly smooth along the tongue, nice low carb; low hop bitterness assertiveness
Overall: I can see the similarities between this and Pillow Hat and this is one I could return to.

Frothy white head on a dull golden coloured body.
Juicy mango aroma.
Medium bodied, smooth with a clean finish.
Apple, mango, floral & orange tastes with a bitter finish.
Nice.

Cloudy orange yellow pour from City Beer. Fluffy foam head that sticks. Citrus, grapefruit, full body/cotton candy feel. Slight pine resin finish. Pretty good.

Pours hazy yellow with good head and lacing. A little marshmallow, which is weird, and some mango. Then finishes with light sweetness. Too much sweet all over. Can at Snally.

Can from Livonia Liquor. Pours a hazy, straw gold with a finger of white foam that lingers. Lovely notes of pineapple, tangerine and mikan pith. Wheat chaff present on the palate with more pineapple flavors. Drying finish that drinks far to easy for 9% abv. Solid stuff.

On tap at the brewery. Pours bright hazy yellow. Pineapple, orange juice, sweet synthetic orange, little pine, grapefruit zest. Decent body. Good.
