Can from Tavour. Pours hazy gold with a largeish white head. Aroma of citrus and ripe yellow melon. Med body or better. Flavor is citrus, yellow melon, pale prunus fruits, and light malt. Fruity, juicy yet well towards dry. Moderately bitter. Gets a little earthy in the finish. Delicious.

Can from Tavour to glass. Enjoyed on a walk with my kids to clear the house while my wife made a presentation. Great walk and great been. Pungent and tropical fruit. Hazed yellow with white head fading to a collar. Slight alcohol heat. Solid beer.

Canned 11/21, drunk 11/28/18. Straight up soup. So thick. But pale gold, not amber chix soup. White head to ring. Galaxy in the nose is spicy and has plentiful mineral, spice, pine and passion fruit. A bit obscured by all the crap in sediment but no resin or alcohol. In the mouth it has good Galaxy notes, again obscured by weird yeast notes. Way too much shit in here but this is a Marked improvement from their initial drain pours. Spicy Galaxy capsaicin character is lovely. Carbonation is a little loose but otherwise it's pretty well-attenuated with more malt depth than they had before by a longshot. No resin or alcohol. VERY rough around the edges but incredibly improved so I'm glad to have given them another chance.
