16 ounce can. Number one with a bullet. Opaque black color. Finger high creamy tan head. Subtle roasted malt aroma hints at espresso and lemon. Sweet roasted malt flavor. Notes of cocoa, espresso, vanilla and lemon as advertised. Creamy mouthfeel. Warming alcohol. All it’s lacking is a dollop of sweet marscapone.

16 oz can from the brewery, via delivery, 6/6/20. Pours an unclear golden color, white head, storing lace. Kinda smells like Sprite with Mint. Drinks lemon-lime, bright, crisp, clean, and very minty. Nice, grass, dough, and cracker undertones as well. The balance here is spot on and the mouthfeel is superb. I thought this one sounded like a good idea, but it far exceeded my expectations. Excellent beer, especially on this 88 degree Saturday afternoon.

16 oz can from the brewery, via delivery, 5/30/20. Canned 5/18/20. Pours a rather mildly hazed golden color for a beer that has the word hazy written on the can. White head, moderate-plus lace. Dough, grass, and grapefruit. Some lemon and herbal hops as well. Solid stuff.

Ultra hazy golden, orange and peach coloured body with a nice, very smooth two centimetre tall tan head that fades relatively quickly, but the haze of the body is great! Aroma of lactose, vanilla, citrus, hay, grass, grapefruit all with a kick of some candy sugar as well. Medium-bodied; Rich lactose and vanilla flavours dominate up front with some citrus, grapefruit, dry hay and grassy notes with a lot of sugars right behind, with the vanilla, candy sugar and fructose flavours all adding to the sugar content. Aftertaste is deep, very rich and nicely structured - especially for the style. There is a ton of citrus and grassy bitterness that stretches out for a long time, but also a good balance of relatively strong malts that provide great structure for all the hop bitterness and sweetness. Overall, a nice hazy IPA with a great profile, almost perfect balance and exquisite sweetness. Great to sample, especially relatively fresh and well-recommended, if you can find it! I sampled this sixteen ounce can, purchased from Liqour Outlet in Boonton, New Jersey on 21-December-2019 for US$3,99 sampled at home in Washington on 10-April-2020.

Bright purple, violet and pink coloured body with almost no head at all - what was there, disipated very quickly and left nothing up there. Aroma of sour kettle malt notes with some light fruits, the faintest hit of brett or lactobilly around the edges with a light grassy and berry-y bite at the end in the nose. Light-bodied; Strong grassy, tart and very fruity bite up front with some wheat, light yeast and breadiness, but the tart fruit and light lactobilly notes show through everything. Aftertaste shows the tart and very fruity notes with a light emphasis on berry and yeastie, dry flavours with some soft alcohol coming through, but is noticeable, along with a soft, grassy and herbal bite from the fruits, still. Overall, a fairly nice, but very dry and lactobilly funked note with some lactose, herbs and definitely fruity flavours shining through, all with some light sweetness, a good fresh wheat and smooth malt profile. Overall, a fairly tart, soured, yeastie and dry beer with some fruit notes, but a lot of flavours and characteristics throughout, but is fairly simplistic, goes down easily and is a worthy finisher. I sampled sixteen ounce can, purchased from Joe Canal's in Lawrenceville, Pennslyvania on 21-October-2018 for US$3,49 sampled at home about a year and a half later on 14-May-2020.

16 ounce can. Number one with a bullet. Hazy pale gold color. Small bubbly beige head. Yeasty, wheat malt aroma hints at cinnamon. Tangy bready malt flavor. Notes of banana, vanilla and cinnamon as advertised. A bit of hefe-funk makes this interesting.
