Pours a hazy, orange-pineapple, with mid-sized head. Aroma is very dank, with tropical fruit (almost a rotting tropical fruit vibe) and citrus. Flavors follow, with a light underlying sweetness and astringent finish. Soft mouthfeel. Moderate levels of hop bitterness in the finish.

Draft at Paragon, 12/11/25. Pours orange with a thin head and some lighter lace. Peach, papaya, orange juice, apricot. Fairly sweet. Juicy. Very smooth. Highly drinkable. Not cloying despite the sweetness. Good stuff.

Tropical fruit salad. A little zippy. Ace.

4 oz draft. Aroma is bold citrus with a mild white grape. Flavors just awesome. Grapefruit, lemon with a splash of white grape in the finish. Alcohol is VERY well hidden.
