Grapefruit nose, lesser tangerine and black pepper notes. Opaque amber, medium head . Grapefruit, orange, pepper. Full body, soft carbonation. I really dig this, very well rounded.

Pint can from Ridgeview Liquors, 3/15/25. Hazy yellow, large white head, average retention. Aroma of melon, dank, tangerine. Taste is grapefruit, pale malt. Hints of lime and herbal notes. Moderate bitterness. Solid.

Aromas are a decent but not great blend of citrus, resin, tropical fruit and dry grain. Flavors are similar to nose, with excellent balance between bitter, sweet and killer carbonation. Really good mouth feel. Pretty good beer.

Pours a hazy, lemon-pineapple, with smallish head. Aroma is tropical fruit and citrus. Flavors follow. Mouthfeel might be just a touch thin. Mild to moderate hop bitterness in the finish.
