Reviewed from notes.
Can to tulip.
Appearance: thick orange juicy haziness with a one finger white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: grapefruity pulp, oranges, light tangerines and lemon zesty hop tones, light piney hops in the middle then some light clean malts
Flavor: sweet to bittersweet vibe running through a blend of the prior noted aromas; finishes grapefruity and tangerine-ish with some lime
Texture: medium bodied, sessionable, nice low carb, very smooth but a touch of dry hop spice to balance it very nicely
Overall: holy cow, yeah, I'd definitely come back to this one.

Beautiful hazy golden and orange coloured body with a thin tan head on top, that fades very quickly and leaves almost nothing up there or on the sides. Aroma of oranges, citrus fruit, light pine and grapefruit with some pineapple and lactose noticeable, with a good deal of both alcohol and malt, too. Medium-bodied; Rich orange, tangerine and especially grapefruit flavour dominates with a light dry malt note and some slightly peppery notes with a herbal and grassy finish with a bit of the creamy lactose note along with a tiny dose of alcohol pungency and warmth. Aftertaste shows the deep citrus flavours but some of the dry and astringent malt, alcohol and lactose notes that don't give this a great finish and instead focus on the creamy, slightly cloyingly sweet and dry funkiness that isn't attributable to the hops - sort of odd for THIS style, specifically. Overall, not as good as I had hoped for, especially for going to the Sun & Miami in a few hours to escape the cold and Washington. Still, nice to try fresh on a beautiful Christmas Day here in our Nation's Capital. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Whole Foods in New York (Bryant Park), New York on 19-December-2020 for US$5,99 sampled at my house here in Washington on Christmas Day 2020, 25-December-2020.

Super rich mandarin aroma, peel included. Green onion is fairly thick here and there's some lactose. Pours hazy orange. Some booze, caramel - hop creep a little here. Can
