Pint can. Tangerine aroma with notes of orange, pumpkin, spice, clove, vanilla, cinnamon, pumpkin and grapefruit. Pours hazy golden-orange colored with a finger of off white head that has excellent retention and some lacing. Starts with juicy orange, tangerine, pumpkin spice and pumpkin flavors. Finishes smooth with clove, vanilla, cinnamon and grapefruit flavors. It’s different, but the flavors kinda muddle together. Decent.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: semi-dark copper with a two finger white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: grapefruity, sweet onions, grassy hoppiness; light clean malts
Flavor: blends the prior noted aromas together in a good bittersweet way; finishes grapefruity and semi-oniony
Texture: medium bodied, somewhat sessionable, nice low carb, good smoothness
Overall: it's on it's way of being a NEIPA but the appearance doesn't have that thick look to it, I will say that.

Can to becher glass.
Appearance: dark brown close to black in color with a two finger off white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: dark roasted malts, black coffee, subtle mixed berries, some cocoa powder
Flavor: blended the prior noted aromas to a fair sweet to subtle roasty quality; finishes with the roasty to coffee to berry-ish tone
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable, good smoothness
Overall: good porter worthy of coming back to.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: thick orange juicy look with a finger and a half's worth of white foamy head which slowly trailed off to leave some light lace
Aroma: citrusy and floral hops fairly bold and up front, subtle danky hoppy vibe in the middle then a nice bready malt underneath
Flavor: bittersweet juicy quality through the blend of the prior noted aromas; finishes juicy and citrusy
Texture: light to medium bodied, slightly sessionable, nice low carb; smooth along the body, low hop bitterness
Overall: pretty good NEIPA worthy of coming back to.

Cloudy lime green with moderate light green head. Guava, pineapple, lime, kiwi fruit, malt, and straw aroma. Mildly sweet guava, pineapple, kiwi, lime, biscuit malt, and very mildly bitter straw flavor. Good body.

Can to becher glass.
Appearance: pale yellow cardboard coloring with a two finger white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: freshly cut jalapenos with a semi-biscuity malt base
Flavor: spicy jalapenos all the way through (medium heat to me); finishes like freshly cut jalapenos
Texture: light to medium bodied, leaning to being a sipper, jalapenos do provide the heat which transfers some assertiveness to the tongue
Overall: I liked this for me but "heat" differentials are often very subjective to personal opinions so extremely hard to rate this one to style, you're gonna have to try this for yourself to determine what level of heat you can tolerate.

Pours murky gold into a tulip. Bright white head with good retention craters and recedes leaving spider lacing. Tangerine and lemon/lime aromas. Medium bodied with dirty tangerine skin and lemon joy front to back. Lasting overripe tropical fruit skin finish. Nope.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: stiff murky brown color with a two finger white foamy head which slid off nicely to leave some light lace.
Aroma: bitter orange rind, sweet mango, light grassy & floral hoppiness, mild cracker malts
Flavor: mostly blends the prior noted aromas together fairly nice but that bitter orange rind seems to want to stay in the lead, mild aftertaste of mangoes and bitter orange rind
Texture: medium bodied, leaning towards being a sipper, bitterness seems to be somewhat invasive on the tongue, finishes with the orange rind bitterness and a touch of mangoes
Overall: the bitterness seems to unbalance this beer enough where I believe a recipe change may be in order for this beer. No date on the can means that's the brewer's fault.
