Day15 of Beer Republic Advent calendar, packaged June 6. Let's roll the dice! Orange hazy, big sea foam head. Juicy orange nose. Pretty hoppy flavors, big lupulin note - and a hint of the ol hop burn. Nice big bitterness for a hazy. Definitely still alright which you can't say for all hazys at seven months old. I guess that pure yellow goodness preserved it? I can't pick out Sauvin under all that.

Can from House Of Trembling Madness as part of the mix pack. It pours cloudy dirty milky blonde with a fluffy white head. The aroma is very fresh, green, weedy, dank, spring onions, garlic, green fruits, greengage, crunchy white grape, pithy lime, grapefruit and unripe mango. The taste is dry upfront, super green, weedy, dank, bong rips, spring onions, herbal vibes, pithy, zesty, lemon - lime, grapefruit, waxy peel, crunchy white grape, gooseberry, greengage, leafy, peppery spice and floury bread with a drying, green finale. Average body and moderate, fluffy carbonation. Fresh, fruity and green. Really enjoyable. Has a good OG hazy vibes with pleasing bitterness and dryness, as opposed to sweetness.

Teku showing turbid dark gold with half a finger of clean white foam.

The nose shows moderately intense notes of mango, kiwi, and light notes of cannabis and grapefruit.

The palate is well carbonated and medium bodied. Grapefruit forward with lighter notes of mango and kiwi followed by a balanced and sharp grapefruit bitterness on the finish.

2 month old can A: Short frothy head on an ugly, dirty yellow slurry. S: Wafer cookies under green grapefruit or pummelo citrus, with pineapple or peach and floral notes. T: Pretty bitter with big citrus pith and pulp along with dry, woody malts. Herbal and floral notes linger. M: Not nearly as feathery as expected. Pretty clean feel with average carbonation. O: Worth a try and not bad, but nothing really special.
