Pours a orange gold from can. Juicy and hippy with acidic wheat. Pretty decent

Canned 4/4/18, drunk 5/11/18.
Fully hazy-to-cloudy, copper-bronze-maize. Off-white head fades steadily to cover.
Uh oh. Already very malty and full of caramel with light oxidation obvious. Bread, biscuit and only light mango-lime for hops, almost as an afterthought.
In mouth it's well-attenuated with a soft texture but just tired and malt heavy with oxidation and abundant caramel showing too strongly for its age. Lightly bitter lime, mango and heavy apricot marmalade. Good honey character and great carbonation. Guess it should have been opened sooner, but still surprised it's this oxidized. No alcohol or resin or flaw.

16 oz. can purchased at Ball Square Fine Wines and Spirits. Smudged canning date of May, sometime, 2018. Shows a hazy dark straw color. Aroma is a creamy grapefruit, pineapple, orange creamsicle. Flavor is thin in character. Body is watery. Ends on some pine resin, astringent. Yikes, it wants to be a New England IPA but falls very short. This needs a good amount of reworking.

Pint can, Wine Warehouse. There Goes Gravity... I said that so many times in the mid 2000s. Anyway, pours a gross murky tan/yellow with a soft off-white head. Aroma is fresh citrus: grapefruit and orange mostly, some juice. Also has green pepper and caramel. Flavor is somewhat juicy citrus, pineapple, melon, caramel. Feels boozy though you don't necessarily taste it. It's weird, interesting, tasty, weird (again).

16oz can pours a muddy dark orange with some sticky, foamy white head. Nose has orange and cheap hand soap, pineapple, baby wipe. Flavor is big with pineapple, juice and pulp, juicy orange, a little faux with candy, melon. Finishes full bodied, not in a good way, with some bitterness.
