As I sometimes say, this is about as good as this style can get. I'm no lover of the hazies but when done well they are distinctly potable. And by that I mean drinkable. Look it up. Well its hazy. Smells big hops, some tropical fruit but as often happens with me it sometimes renders as body odor and shoes. But it's not bad. Semi dry profile to mostly dry. Peppery resins and citrus flavors. Spicy finish. Medium bitterness.

Pretty hazy golden and light peach coloured body with a nice two to three centimetre tall off-white head that stays afloat nicely above the 80 per cent opaque body. Aroma of bright tropical fruits with some mangoes and papaya along with the more traditional orange and citrus, finishing with some light bitterness in the nose from the alpha acids of the hops, but the wheat malts are soft in the nose as well. Medium-bodied; Relatively rich wheatie and orangey flavours dominate here with a good tropically flavour from the papaya and even guava notes, but a clean finish of hops and soft bitterness make this nice, especially at the end. Aftertaste shows some alpha acid bitterness and a good fresh orange and mango flavour that makes this smooth and quite easy-drinking, but still full-of-flavour. Overall, a nice newer school IPA that has a lot of clean fruits, but also showing some slight bitterness to go with the smooth wheat malts - very nice to have, especially on draught and local here!  I sampled this sixteen ounce pour on draught at Ford's Garage in Orlando, Florida on 29-December-2022 for US$7,00 with my wife and three kids while away on vacation.
