12 ounce can. Number one with a bullet. Hazy, yellow gold color. Large, pillowy white head. Fragrant aroma of fresh citrus. Notes of lemon, pineapple, tangerine and lime. Bready malt flavor leads to more sweet citrus. Lemon, orange, grapefruit and lime. Some hints of white wine on the backend.

Dark gold with a large fluffy head that lingered. Sweet, tangy and yeasty with golden fruit, booziness and a bit of mustiness. Long finish. Full bodied

Can @ Broadway Dive Bar, Manhattan (10/17/23). Pours extremely hazy dark yellow with a small foamy whitish head, sharp candy aroma, adequate carbonation, mildly bitter citrusy taste with a very strong candy taste, feels like drinking dissolved lollipops! Thin body, long floral finish. I disliked the taste.

Cloudy pineapple yellow-orange body, thick cream head. Aroma spicy and mineraly with grapeskin, lychee, pepper, and pineapple. Body creamy, tannic, and spicy with citrus resins, orange marmalade, pineapple, passionfruit, lychee, berries, white grape and catty herbs. Very good.

16 oz can. Date: 08/04/23. Aroma of oranges and mild tangerine juice. Flavor shows a boatload of citrus fruits. Oranges, tangerines, kumquats, grapefruit. Has just enough citrus peel bitterness to balance it. This brewery certainly has improved since it’s early, early days.

Can (5/29/23) pour from The Beer Store, Salem. It's a cloudy light brown-dark yellow with tons of sparkle, thin white head with poor retention and half-ring of lacing. Aroma is strong papaya, cream, dank vegetal. Taste is initial harsh alcohol, then nonspecific fruit, orange. Mouthfeel is medium body with frothy texture, fairly lively carbonation. I thought this was going to be a home run with these hops (and they should still be pretty fresh) but the alcohol just overwhelms them. Majorly disappointing.

Pours hazy yellow with a frothy white head. Aroma of lemon, huge citrus notes, some melon. Taste has some lemongrass oils, bright citrus notes, grapefruit oils etc. Palate has a nice array of hop oils, citrus, melon, lemongrass. Quite good.
