Ridiculously hazy deep amber and copper coloured body, with a thick, three to four centimetre tall tan head that stays afloat for a while, all atop a deep copper, 90 per cent opaque tint - nice! Aroma of mangoes, citrus fruits, earth, flowers, grass, caster sugar and a small amount of alcohol - quite pungent in the nose together. Medium to Full-bodied; Strong mango and tangerine flavours at first with a nice sweet and syrupy bite that has a light hit of yeast and some wheatie and very smooth malts right up front with a smooth fruitiness on the end with a light tartness of grapefruit, but a nice balance of rich hops and some pungent sugars. Aftertaste shows the fruits front and centre with a lot of alpha acids and bitterness still hanging around, but the mango and rich melon bite shows almost as strong with a bunch of malts and some robust sugars, too. Overall, a nice and very rich beer that tastes Imperial from the richness and malts, but not very 'imperial' in alcohol or bitterness, as this is fairly easy-drinking and enjoyable, while being complex and deep. Nice to sample this from a new (to me) brewery, very fresh and appropriate for the style! Looking for more from the brewery the next time I visit the state! I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Joe Canal's in Lawrenceville, New Jersey on 21-December-2020 for US$3,79 canned on 04-July-2020 with the tagline: 'Bursting with Hops', sampled at my house here in Washington on 01-February-2021.
