16 oz. can. Aroma is soft berry, and mild watermelon notes. Flavor follows with the addition of some kiwi fruit and a very mild lasting, tart finish. Just enough tartness the balance, all of the fruit. Nicely balanced. Extremely easy to drink.

Can into a becher glass.
Appearance: light orange to yellow sort of haziness with a two finger white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: orangey to melon-like and piney to semi-mixed citrusy hops then a touch of papaya involved hoppiness with a clean malt base
Flavor: meshes the prior noted aromas to a fine sweet semi-juicy tone to a bittersweet quality; finishes orangey to melon-like
Texture: medium bodied, sessionable; some smoothness but also a little bit of dryness edging the tongue
Overall: mostly a pretty nicely done AIPA or NEIPA depending who you talk to. I'd return to this one.

Can to nonic glass.
Appearance: glossy golden orange haziness with a finger's worth of white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: orangey to piney to mixed citrusy hops up front with a touch of some lime or lemon hop scent underneath; light clean malts
Flavor: meshes the prior noted aromas to a fine sweet to bittersweet and a light zesty hop spice at the end before it finishes semi-dry with a light orangey to piney hoppiness
Texture: light to medium bodied - perhaps a touch closer to light bodied, sessionable; good smoothness but also a little bit of punchy dryness rolling along the tongue
Overall: I believe this works as a session IPA.

Can to English pint glass.
Appearance: dark brown close to black color with a two finger khaki foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: milk chocolate, coffee sweet notes; caramel notes then some light peanut butter sweetness down in there.
Flavor: combines the prior noted aromas to a fine sweet coffee and smooth caramel quality; finishes sweet through some chocolate and caramel tones
Texture: light to medium bodied - maybe a touch closer to medium, some sessionability; some smoothness
Overall: for the most part pretty nicely done dessert stout worth coming back to and I think I liked this one more than the other variant.

Can to English pint glass.
Appearance: dark brown close to black color with a two finger khaki foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: milk chocolate, coffee roasty notes, coffee sweet notes; then some light peanut sweetness further on down
Flavor: combines the prior noted aromas to a fine roasty to sweet coffee quality; finishes roasty and coffee with some chocolate
Texture: light to medium bodied - maybe a touch closer to medium, some sessionability; some smoothness
Overall: for the most part pretty nicely done coffee forward milk stout worth coming back to and it was interesting to see how much the peanut butter from the base beer has been fairly non-existent now.

Can to becher glass.
Appearance: dark orange close to amber color with a three finger white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: light pineapple, mixed citrusy with a touch of hop zest and a little bit of piney hops; light clean malts
Flavor: meshes the prior noted aromas to a fine bitter to bittersweet sort of quality; finishes mixed citrusy with a touch of hop zest and an even lighter dry note
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable; some smoothness but a light dryness strolls across the tongue
Overall: not bad but clean up some of that dryness and I bet this would be a lot better.

On tap at McGillicuddy's, Williston, VT on 01/30/2020.
Appearance: hazy burnt dark yellow to orange color with a bar pour's kind of slim white foamy head which dissipated into oblivion and didn't provide any lace
Aroma: papaya, pine, mixed citrusy and some peach hop notes with a nice clean malty underneath
Flavor: blends the prior noted aromas to a fine bitter to bittersweet semi-juicy sort of quality; finishes somewhat with the papaya, pine and peachy hop notes
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable; good smoothness, nice low carb; medium to low hop bitterness assertiveness
Overall: pretty nicely done NEIPA or AIPA depending on who you talk to. I could come back to this.

Can to becher glass.
Appearance: glossy burnt dark yellow to a light orange color with a two and a half fingers of white frothy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: mixed citrusy to peach and piney hops with a clean malt bill backing that up
Flavor: wraps up the prior noted aromas to a fine bitter to bittersweet sort of quality; finishes with piney and mixed citrusy hops with a sturdy clean maltiness
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable; good smoothness but also some chewy malt here which seems to clamp down on the hops to enliven a sort of bitterness not necessarily coming from the hops
Overall: I think I get what's going on and if I remember correctly I have had some West coast styled IPA's like this a way long time ago.

Can to English pint glass.
Appearance: dark ruddy amber color with a quarter finger of off-white frothy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: caramel/toffee malts, light earthy tones, freshly cut grass, touch of herbal tones and a little bit of molasses down in there
Flavor: combines the prior noted aromas to a fine malty sweet to earthy sweet quality; finishes the same way
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable; some smoothness in a semi-herbal to earthy sort of way which provides a little bit of earthy brisk nicks to the tongue
Overall: mostly a good Scottish ale I think I could come back to.

Can to lager glass.
Appearance: clear light yellow color with a two and a half to maybe three finger white foamy head which took it's time to dissipate and then once it did mellow lace stuck to the glass.
Aroma: light clean floral to semi-grassy - fresh cut-like; clean bready malts
Flavor: wraps up the prior noted aromas to a fair sweet bready to floral/grassy hop tones; finishes semi-crisp through the floral/grassy hops
Texture: light bodied, sessionable; good smoothness
Overall: Czech or German pils? hmmmm, I'm not entirely sure, maybe one of those "modernized ones" and this isn't a bad one, I think I could come back to this.
