Pours slightly hazed light gold into a shaker. Bright white head with medium retention recedes to skim surface. Melon and pineapple aromas. Soft with sweet melon and papaya upfront turning to pith and dry mango skin in the lasting finish.

Canned 6/13, drunk 7/8/18 and on draught at Brava, 7/20/18.
Glowing, cloudy peach-honey-golden. Small, white head sits at low cover.
Lime-mango and leafy pine seems to suggest strong Mosaic properties. Very dry, leafy, not much juice but clean, with no alcohol or resin. Very sparse oat and cracker-like grains.
Lime-tangerine and papaya with some Azacca-like twang, but not too much, thankfully. Pretty light with lemon-like juice adding good bitterness and vibrant yellow fruits growing stronger on the finish, with warming. Soft, with a honey-malt-like density and engaging carbonation. Other than the slight bit of twangy, bad Mosaic character, it's excellent. Light on the palate, yet with succulent malt and hop. Zero resin, low bitterness, no alcohol.

4 pack of cans from Bier Cellar Portland. Hazy dark yellow color with a decent sized tightly bubbled white head that persists. Juicy citrus and light tropical fruits with a hint of earth and some sweet bready maltiness to back it up. I really enjoyed this one.
