Draught at Picco, early July 2017.
Moderately hazy, maize-golden body is well-carbonated creating a small but fairly dense, white head that shows moderately-strong retention.
Juicy mango, pineapple and meyer lemon in the nose are backed by soft, biscuity and honey-filled malts. Light peppery spice and fresh, lightly dank greenery on the end help perk things up and provide more depth than the tropical and lightly citric fruits show up front. Very clean, with no alcohol, flaw and very little resin.
Juicy pineapple and meyer lemon mixes with leafy, lime zest and vegetal greenery. Black pepper, and light grains in the background providing some complexity in the texture with the main force of the malt being soft and well-attenuated, adding gentle sweetness. Tight carbonation and low resin. Gets pretty full-bodied with lots of malt and bready texture as it warms, but due to the dryness and elegance of the hop treatment, it never gets fatiguing nor does the alcohol come through overtly or sharply. I think I liked Pieces of Eight a little more, but this was excellent in its own right. When Foley Bros beers are on, as this one is, they come off much lighter than their abv would suggest and with bright, highly aromatic hop characteristics.

Pours slightly hazed gold into a tulip. Bright white head with medium retention recedes leaving spider lacing. Sweet mango and passion fruit aromas. Soft and dry with papaya and pineapple upfront turning to dried mango in the lasting finish. Nice.

16 oz. can thanks to Willrunforbeer. Huge citrus, mild tropical fruits on the aroma. Flavor is peach fuzz, apricot, grapefruit rind, and orange peel. Mild bitterness and a surprisingly mellow caramel malt bill. The caramel is notable bit will come out after a few weeks sitting. Drinks lighter than the gravity. Still real nice!
