16oz can pours a pulpy orange with some sticky, white head. Nose has orange, canteloupe, vanilla, mango. Some sweet gelato lurking. Flavor is nicer, bitter which is good because many within the style hang on sweet, orange, tangerine, melon, vanilla, grapefruit, some tea. Finishes basically full bodied and bitter.

Pours a slightly hazy, golden yellow, with minimal head. Aromas of citrus and tropical fruit. Flavor is very juicy tropical fruit, with some citrus accents and a touch of pine/spruce hoppiness to the finish. Very tasty. Very good.

Oh, this is good...Pours a very hazy, pineapple-orange, with minimal head. Aroma of citrus and tropical fruits, with some basement dankness and sour washcloth. Flavor is citrus and tropical fruit, with just the right level of smoothness. Not too sweet, not too bitter. There's just a light pine/spruce hop bitterness in the finish. Very well-done beer.
