Brewery draught, 5/24/25.
Heavily hazy, bright golden-maize. Small, white head.
Subtle spice in the nose with straightforward citrus and mango softness. Round, clean, with honey and white bread notes from the malt. Not overly aromatic.
Soft, juicy, maybe a touch in the sweet and under bittered side, but clean and with no heavy pine/spruce or earth from the Galaxy. Mostly round citrus.

16 oz. can in a trade with tfontana, thanks big balla! Aroma has light pine, pleasurable light danky earth, pineapple. Taste comprises of mild citrus, subtle pine, soft tropical hints. Galaxy hop is danky and popping hard in this brew. I like it!

Can pour from Worldwide Wine & Spirits. Appearance is opaque light brown-yellow with light sparkle at the edges of the glass, a bunch of chunky dark floaties swirling about, finger-width, white foamy head with poor retention and trace lacing. Aroma is strong scalliony/arm pitty herb over mango, guava, milder citrus. Taste is similar to aroma with the herbal quality leading the way but stronger citrus, guava and mango than the aroma. Mouthfeel is medium side of light-to-medium bodied with smooth, frothy texture, soft carbonation, some citric bite and nice alcohol warmth, and dry finish as taste with lingering bittersweet. Overall, the herbal side of Galaxy carries the day and the citrusy bite of Citra is its biggest contribution. Pretty good.
