Can split at L6 Tasting, thanks to Tipple, 25/05/23. Hazed orange topped with a just off white head. Nose is orange zest, grass, melon, mixed tropicana. Taste comprises grass, orange peel, light mineral bite, melon, mixed citric flesh. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spiked with grassy hop bitterness. Ok DIPA if somewhat stuck in 3rd gear.

6th Floor bottleshare. Thanks to Tips for the Can. Mackinac hops? WTF? Hazy orange gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Hazy orange gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is light and semi dry, good fine carbonation. Thinnish malts, modest creamy sweetness. Sharp grassy bitter savoury hops. Modest hop fruits on the back end but this slightly odd nettley vibe is the dominant character. Interesting...
