Brewed with 2-row malt, wheat, and oats for a soft, pillowy mouthfeel. Double dry hopped with Galaxy, Cryo Citra, and Cyro Simcoe hops for bold tastes and aromas of passion fruit, peach, stone fruit, and juicy orange citrus.

Pours murky gold into a tulip. White head with excellent retention recedes leaving sheets. Mango, papaya and guava aromas. Thick with mango, passion fruit and papaya front to back. Warm lasting pine and treacle finish. Nice. Definitely the best offering that I've tried (after multiple flights) from these guys...

Canned 2/21/22, drunk 7/4/22. Moderately-to-heavily hazy, copper-maize-golden. Large, off-white head, good retention. Excellent juiciness for 4.5 months old. Peach, citrus, mango and a touch of soft mineral. Yeah, this is kind of incredible that it's still this hoppy. Earthy, almost, with rustic grains, a big burst of piney bitterness but then a splash down in honey, peach, juicy citrus and soft oats. There's a mineral-like yeast character that's super endearing here and adds a great dimension. Bitterness balances then calms down and it doesn't get too punchy. Touch of alcohol, but it's minor. This was probably pretty intense when fresh, but it's shockingly great now. Been pretty impressed with this brewery. Should actually go visit them.

Few cans at home day after blizzard. Hazy yellow and small frothy head. Nose is fruity and some pine. Tastes of pine, pineapple, biscuits, water cracker, apricots. Slight chewy palate. Fruit finish.
