6 pack canned 12/10/25, drunk 1/23/26, as pictured.
LOTS of juice. But it's not sugary or fake/cheap. Just wish there were a bit more hops. Still, there are some (citrus, hint of pine) and there's a bit of oat and lactose to balance.
Juicy flavors with mango leading the way. Appreciate that it's pretty well attenuated with a bit of piney and citrus rind hop bitterness. Lingering juice with soft, chewy oat and minimal lactose, adding slight sweetness and slickness. Another one, like Disarm, that is pretty nicely done and has more body than usual on account of the oat.

Can - hazy light gold - semi-watery texture, especially up front, but fills in a bit through the middle - light acidity - moderate tropical hop character- the fruit addition is distracting - finish is moderately bitter and lightly “juicy” - I do like the hop character in this, but the thin texture and lightly metallic tang on the back end is no fun.

Last of mixer to rate. Had one of these other night this one is better somehow. Decent looking thick orange yellow with puffy head. Nose is syrupy mango. Really mango is most all I get. Too juice like.

12 oz. can from Go Brewing. Typical hazy IPA pour. A fizzy head that stays briefly, like most NA beers. Peach and mango make it into the nose, with a note of American Pale Ale hops to follow. Taste is a nice mix of fruits, then hops, and some malt. Not overly sweet and no tinny or chemical taste like many mega-brewed NA beers. Just a nice, easy drinker. Does leave a little stickiness on my upper lip.
