Starts with a juicy burst of tropical notes, full of pineapple and mango and a little cantaloupe. Hints of grapefruit, mandarin, and pine lie underneath. Grows increasingly sweet on the back end, though, taking on a corn and grain character, a little too much sugar lingering through the fade. Not bad, but one pint is plenty.

Grapefruit and some tangerine, a light touch of pepper. Pours golden with good head. Good malt backbone. Light bitter finish with some hop tang. Very easy drinking. Can.

Date obscured bottle A: Poured 1/2 of dark tan fast falling foam atop a black brown body. S: Sweet scent of molasses, toffee, coffee and dark chocolate. T: Bitter roasty coffee dominates dry dark chocolate and herbal hops. M: Medium light, clean, dry and lightly powdery with lively carbonation. O: Nothing stands out but no flaws present either. Nice porter.

Really nice, fresh can here. Lots of juicy tangerine with a light candied apple backdrop. Good malt backbone even though bitterness is light. Some green onion here. Orange amber pour with decent head. Tall can.

Bottle stamped Enjoy by 04/15/20 so assumed ~ 4 months old A: Poured a small head over a bright pale orange body. Head fell to a lasting ring. S: Malty scent of toffee with light pine and orange. T: Woody malt and bitter piney hops at once. Faint citrus pith and biscuit kick in later. Crisp and well balanced; less sweet than expected. M: Medium body with average to stiff carbonation and dry-ish finish. O: Good malt flavors although they overwhelm the hops. it is English though and not all too fresh. Overall well balanced and fairly tasty.

Tasty semi-hazed IPA, with loads of grapefruit, pineapple, mango, and earth, with a moderate grainy sweetness on the back end mixed with pine and earth. Lovely pint.

Muddled and yeasty, with a load of white bread forming a lemon-tinged base, while the front presents moderate melon and lemon zest from the hops and a slight cracker malt undertone. Interesting, but the farmhouse side never asserts itself, and the dominant flavor is yeast. Skippable.

Power tasting at Salesforce, bottle; should be vintage 2017, 2 years old
Dark brown colour, near black. It has a nice nutty, maple, bourbon character; sweet without being cloying, also because it has a quite strong roasted malt character; the alcohol is well hidden.
Very good, I don't get special vibes though.

Bottle stamped Enjoy bu 11/19/19 so no fucking clue how old it is. I'll assume it was brewed ~ 8/19 so 3 months. Batch Stamp 2254 so also assuming this is the 2nd batch although Batch 1 was numbered 2212. From website: Batch No. 2212 - Coming Soon - Batch 2 A: Light gold with a short white head that fell quickly to a thick ring. S: Citrus, pine and vegetal notes with a green wood background. T: Bitter and citrusy hop notes of mainly grapefruit and lemon pulp and pith. Pine noticed further in with that woody note from the nose. Tastes like the description of Batch #2. M: Light body, prickly carbonation and a pine resinous rough finish. O: I like it quite a bit but I'd appreciate a more straightforward batching/dating convention. I'd buy again.
