Very hazy bright golden coloured body with a nice, microfoamed, fairly large three centimetre tall off-white head that stays up nicely above the 95 per cent opaque raw honey glow. Aroma of oranges, mangoes, melons, hay, light grass and a ton of honey and especially honeysuckle scents that make this seem rich - in the nose, at least. Medium to Full-bodied; Very funky, oaty, bready, biscuity and astringent, play doh-y malt flavours show at first with some oranges and papaya notes, but the stronger melony flavours coupled with the deeper (and not better) malt elements, but the yeast and backbone are just too funky to be very enjoyable. Aftertaste is very fruity, with some dry and grassy flavours, but the pungent, medicinal, bitter and funky malts are too strong for this one and literally (and figuratively) leave a bad taste in my mouth for this whole beer! Overall, not my favourite from Tripping Animals or even one that I like, but the malt here really leaves a bad impression - at least to me - this one isn't worth trying at all! I sampled this sixteen ounce pint-sized can, purchased from Knightly Spirits in Orlando (Orange Blossom Trail), Florida on 31-December-2022 for US$6,99, canned on 02-November-2022 and sampled at my house here in Washington on 14-May-2023.

Can (11/2/22) pour from Beer and Wine Nation. It's an opaque, light brown-dark yellow with no sparkle, a couple of white floaties, finger-width off-white head with good retention and nice lacing. Aroma is stone fruit, grape Skittles, tangerine, lemon-lime. Taste is strong fruit (not as identifiable as stone), grape Skittles, weaker lemon-lime. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with smooth texture, average carbonation and finish as taste with crisp, dry, yeasty bitterness. Overall, not peak freshness but plenty of hops. Aroma a bit more interesting than taste. Nice texture.
