Poured from a 16 oz can dated March 23, 2020. Aroma is rather fruity and hop forward with light cracker malt notes. Hints of alcohol. Hop notes of passion fruit, pear, stone fruit, mango and tropical citrus with light dank, resin notes. Pours a slightly hazy, yellow gold with a large, thick, pillowy white head that slowly recedes to a small film that lingers in clumps on the edges. Light lacing and no legs. Flavor is somewhat sweet with light cracker malt notes. Light alcohol spice and medium bitterness. Moderate hop notes of passion fruit, troptical citrus, mango and stone fruit. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a nice modern, hazy pale ale with lots of juicy hop notes and a soft bitterness and malt profile.

Can. Pours clear golden, small white head, decent lacing. A bit of a citrus aroma, hints of mango, grapefruit, perfume. Flavor is light sweet, light plus bitter. Light body. Hint of an odd aftertaste.
