Life can be full of pluses and minuses. The plus here is the label, interestingly colorful. The minus is the name of the beer unless I see an explanation later. But all this has nothing to do with the contents so let us proceed. My tulip glass from a throwback Ft. Worth brewery receives the pour and I determine a cloudy, yellow-orange body topped by a thin skim of almost white foam. The nose is orange marmalade, citrus and a touch of pine. And the drink, well, this is not bad. Some hoppiness early, orange peel, grain, a small grapefruit influence, dankness surprisingly and a tangerine sweetness. Pretty nice, I let this one warm up for a while and the various tastes came through distinctly.

Canned 473ml. -at Ambasada Zagreb. Unclear orange/golden coloured, medium sized off-white head, citrus and light alcohol in the nose. Sweet malty, citrusy, light candy tropical fruits, notes of alcohol and sweetish finish. Slightly boozy.

Romans are blend of citrus and resin with straw, malt and a hint of onion. Flavors are similar to nose slightly more sweet than bitter up front and a lasting bitter finish with some orange. Decent.

16 oz can from Beer Advocate’s Big Beer Box. Aroma has notes of cantaloupe, crackery malt, orange creamsicle. Pours hazy OJ with a half finger cream white head that settles into a cap of foam fairly quickly. Taste has a light to moderate pithy bitterness with juicy flavors of orange and creamsicle.

Can. Pours hazy yellow, small white head, good lacing. Aroma is a bit dank, armpits, over ripe vegetables. Flaky is light sweet, light plus bitter, a bit sharp. Medium body.

A hazy, juicy, IPA beer. Vintage Other Half for sure. 🥦 peppery finish.
