3 week old can A: Poured a dirty dull pale yellow haze with minimal head or lace. S: Complex fruity aroma with orange, tangerine, mango and peach. T: Bitter citrus notes fade to reveal a lacking malt presence save for a faint woody sweetness. M: Light, smooth and well carbonated, finishing clean with no hop burn. O: Tasty enough overall despite some thinness and unappealing look.

Refrigerated 12 oz. aluminum can poured into a glass. Hazy pale yellow with small white head. Aroma is lime, medium body, lower carbonation, and very little lacing. Taste is lime, margarita mix, brine, and tart. Nice one.

Single can from Tasty Beverage in Asheville. Duvel glass @ home. Pale, not quite clear, yellow pour with a slight green tint. Spicy green hop scent, papaya-like, acidic apples. Taste is like a mixture of hops, floral pear juice & tart orange. More like Orangina soda oranges. Spritzy carbonation, slightly yeasty, turning soft & juicy. Not bad honestly.

Can shared at Craft Brewed. Pours a hazy golden straw color with a small bit of white foam. Mango and pineapple aromas with some light apricot and dank notes as it warms. Smooth and creamy on the palate. Easy drinking. Lingering tropical hop notes and little to no bitterness.
