Sampled from the tap at GTMW 2018. Pours a hazy yellow with a slight orange hue and a white head that dissipates slowly to the edges. Aroma has tropical fruits, bitter citrus and sweet grains backing. Flavor has citrus peel and bitter citrus supported by dank tropical fruits and sweet grains.

Growler and on tap at Dryhop. Rather excellent, clean, drinkable Pale Ale. Filtered orange-tan body. Thin white head. Pretty straightforward, great clean mouthfeel. Leans into the malt some. but the amarillo is quite pleasant too, a little more juicy or maybe just late additions. Solid.

I had and reviewed a previous year's version, but this review is from July 2018. Tap and Growler. Thick unfiltered orange body. Creamy, steady, white head. World Class IIPA. Dank and tropical at the same time. Holds its own with those NE classics. Booming but delicate Galaxy. Not sure what the more bitter hop is, but it really works. Awesome stuff.

Growler from Dryhop. Really nice, fresh Milk Stout base. Creamy, sweet, pleasant chocolate tone. The orange peel comes through in the aroma. The cinnamon, vanilla, and ginger are all well played. Pretty unique offering, well executed.

On tap and in the growler from the brewery. Really nails it, quite sessionable. Mild lemon and lime tone up front, well balanced by the tropical Motueka and the drier Amarillo. Hyper sessionable, really clean and lovely. Filtered yellow-tan body. Excellent.

Growler from the brewery, assumably in the backlog as well. Didn't really do it for me. Doesn't really stand up to a good German example. A little too malty, sweet...doesn't really have the clove or hop balance it needs. Not bad by any means, just no great.

On tap at the brewery and growler at home. Thick, authentic, opaque peach-orange-tan body. Thin white head. Booming bright, juicy hop aroma...passionfruit and orange juice. Taste is similar...quite delicious. Tastes a lot like they made a hazy version of Shark Meets Hipster. Has real hop depth, albeit quite juice forward. World Class stuff.

On tap and then in growler from the brewery. Really well executed Schwarzbier. Thin beige head on top of a black-brown body. Serious malt depth, but never sticky or overbearing. Very true to style. On the fuller side of medium bodied, very refreshing and drinkable. Some bakers chocolate tones. Excellent stuff.
