Crystal clear golden and peach coloured body with a very nice, microfoamed tan and off-white head, about three centimetres tall that stays afloat nicely. Aroma of citrus, oranges, light resin, a touch of alcohol and some good malt scents, as well. Medium-bodied; Very rich malt, vanilla, alcohol, pine, resin and very floral hop notes with some grass, but there is a pungent bitterness and light astringency that does show the alcohol, but is slightly tempered by the malt and light vanilla. Aftertaste shows the very astringent and bitter citrus with some malt and a touch of vanilla, but the grassy, floral and malt flavours dominate, with literally no sweetness noticeable at all throughout this one, not from fruits, caster sugar or even lactose! Overall, a very bitter and pungent beer, but not from the hops hops - just from the citrus, alcohol and flowers. Very interesting and okay to tr, but definitely not what I was expecting and I wash I hadn't used space in my suitcase for this one! I sampled this sixteen ounce can, purchased from Hy-Vee in Papillion (Omaha), Nebraska on 21-January-2020 for US$2,99 sampled at my house here in Washington on 13-April-2020.

Draft. A- Orange, creamsicle. A- Orange color, hazy liquid, white head. T- Guava, tangerine, creamsicle, vanilla. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, balanced finish. O- Never had a beer from Treehouse but I would put money on it that this is just as good as those Julius beers. A special one time brewery only release that is a shame if it's never done again or canned. Very tasty stuff. A pint was hardly enough. Like a liquid creamsicle ice cream bar. Outstanding.
