Fresh 64oz growler shared by Heather on 12/31/17.
Heavily hazy, short of soupy, maize-bronze-golden with a large white head that slowly falls to cover.
Excellent mineral, nectarine, passion fruit and even strawberry pours forth from the glass. Brighter lime, spice and leafy, dank green round out the nose as soft biscuit and light cereal gently balances. Touch of juicy mango lingers on with no alcohol or flaw.
In the mouth it's incredibly flavorful for its size and one hell of a great representation of the hop. Tons of passion fruit, meyer lemon, honey, biscuit, black pepper, soft mineral and light guava all come together in a soft, gently, tightly effervescent package that is well-attenuated yet generously malty. No pine, alcohol, resin, doughy yeast or flaw. This brewer is really hitting his stride with the hoppy stuff. Almost everything is absolutely top-notch.

32ounce growler, looks like an orange smoothie. 3 finger creamy yellow white head. Can smell the grapefruit from about 3 feet away. has a pepper spiced aroma, bites with grapefruit, clove, grapefruit, tangerine. very little carbonation, thick, smoothie like. I'm not a fan of this style of beer but the flavors are nice. you get an acidic grapefruit skin with sourdough bread, milk, yoghurt, finish is lingering tangerine.

Very cloudy. Kind of dark. Head fades fast. Looks oily. The aroma is nice. Clean pineapple and tangerine. Very juicy. It has a very dense oily flavor. The bitterness is really strong tasty beer. Too NEIPA for me
