6.8/10 β€” Appearance 6 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 6 Overall 7
Pour is a orange hazy with a average white head. Aroma is cantaloupe and honeydew melon. Flavor is more melon with a chalky dry malt. Finish is gone and dries out the mouth. Some stone fruit is detected as well. It's hazy but not a hazy NE IPA. Still pretty good with lots of melon and it's super dry.

Can from Cap Tap. Pours moderately hazy gold with a white head. Aroma of green melon and white berries. Med plus with a rather full/slick mouthfeel. Rather juicy; fruitily hoppy - green melon, maybe mango and citrus. It's suggesting it wants to be dank. Not wholly dry, but nicely bitter in a moderate way. Caramel support is detectable. Very nice ale.
