Pours a very hazy, golden mustard color, with thick, mid-sized head. Aroma is dank, with sour washcloth, citrus, tropical fruit. Flavors largely follow, with a moderate underlying sweetness and a fairly moderate level of hop bitterness at the finish. Soft mouthfeel.

Can (4/20/23) pour shared by Chalumeaux--thanks, TJ! It's an opaque, milky orange-yellow with nice sparkle, finger-width off-white head with poor retention and nice rings of lacing. Aroma is strong citrus, herb, stone fruit, biscuit. Taste is citrus, herb, mango, biscuit. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with thick, frothy texture, average carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, thick look and mouthfeel. Good strength with decent complexity.

Canned 4/20/23, drunk 5/7/23. Thick concrete-like pour with a muted brass-blonde-golden. Large, fairly well-retained, white head. Spice, earth, mineral, orange juice, mango and honey and white bread-like maltiness. Clean, bright, juicy and soft with no flaw, alcohol or resin. Juicy, with white wine, mineral, earth and spice as well as juicy citra adding orange, lemon and mango. Bit of sweat, soft mineral and a pillowy-soft maltiness showing honey and white bread. Good attenuation and no resin.

Wouldn’t have picked out rakau hops. Grassy citrus. Nicely balanced
