At a tasting, smallish creamy head, murky peach orange color, with yellow hues, aroma of citrus with hints of tropical fruits and minerals, fruity shrubby flavor, hint of soap, Lightish sweetness, a bit harsh bitterness. Nice.

Can from BD. It pours crazy murky creamy orange with a medium white head. The aroma is sweet, juicy, orange creamsicle, mango, solero, bit green and piney. The taste is smooth, bitter, green, pine needles, light dankness, mango, pineapple, orange creamsicle, grapefruit, fruit punch, powdery, chalky, nectarine and muffin with a smooth finish. Medium body and fine, foamy carbonation. Aroma is rather nice, but taste doesnt quite match up.. Decent gear overall.

Can drunk 8/11/18.
Heavily hazy-to-soupy, bronze-maize-golden, large white head steadily falls to ring/cover.
Nose is dense and packed with both heavily fruity ester (apple, strawberry, nectarine) and deep, green, dank notes featuring red grapefruit, pine (low resin) and unripe pineapple. But there's little/no twang or resin and the malts are gently supportive adding biscuit and cracker behind it. No alcohol or flaw.
In the mouth it's equally dense and subtle at first, with plentiful pine-lemon, yet a very soft, malty texture with good attenuation and hints at some juiciness to come, as it warms/breathes. Pineapple, light mango and sweet lime do emerge and it shows a surprising lack of resin or alcohol. Red grapefruit, mango and ripe nectarine replace some of the potentially "hard", bitter citrus notes eventually. Very soft, almost creamy texture with engaging, proper carbonation and no alcohol or flaw.
