Pint can. Mango aroma with notes of pineapple, passion fruit, orange, tangerine and grapefruit. Pourshazy golden orange colored with a large white head that has excellent retention and good lacing. Starts with juicy mango, passion fruit and orange flavors. Finishes dry but still smooth with pineapple, tangerine and grapefruit flavors. Quite nice.

Pours a hazy, honey gold, with smallish head. Aroma is a bit dank, with tropical fruit and citrus. Flavors are tropical fruit and citrus, some bread, a bit of wood. Mouthfeel is pretty smooth, maybe a touch thin. Moderate hop bitterness in the finish.

Splurging on the second-largest draft pull here. Deep brown -black color, very thin ring of foam. Huge blast of maple right in the glass. Drinks like a thickened maple & chocolate syrup that should be poured on pancakes. This is indeed living up to its reputation, and I'm happy to have finally gotten a chance at it. Still yielding up some interesting bits: now some baking cocoa. Now some sweet bourbon filled chocolates.

Teku showing moderately filtered dark gold with half a finger of clean white foam.
Then nose shows moderately intense notes of papaya and guava.
The palate is medium bodied and well carbonated with a moderate alcoholic bite and a strong citric zest throughout. Papaya and pineapple forward with a mild bitterness. Had about half pint but would have been happy with a third, it kinda tires your palate.

Can from Beer Republic. Clear golden, small, stable, foamy, white head. Aroma of peach, grape, mandarin, shallot, lemongrass, pine, cheese rind. Taste has sweetish peach, melon & grape, leading to a bitter middle of pine, grapefruit & herbs within a bready, cracker-like and slightly honeyish malt body. Piney hops in the finish, lingering bitter citrus pith, unripe stone fruit & shallot. Medium body, slick texture, soft carbonation. Restrained all in all, some juiciness, mainly dry. I like it!
