16 oz can from Icarus mobile, 1/21/22. Canned 12/28/21. Hazed yellowish-orange color with an off-white head and fairly strong lace. Pineapple, orange, a bit of white grape, and a good touch of stone fruit. More so on the dry side of those fruits than the sweet side, but pretty well balanced overall. This is a really nice beer.

16 ounce can. Number one with a bullet. Slow, luxurious pour yields a murky yellow, tan color topped by a frothy, bubbly beige head. Fragrant citrus aroma leans toward tangerine, pineapple and passion fruit. Flavor upfront is fresh squeezed lemon, orange and pineapple juices. Perhaps a hint of melon and peach as well. Creamy mouthfeel from the oats and wheat. Warming alcohol on backend seems well hidden. A touch of resiny pine in finish. A delightful brew, indeed.
