12 oz. can. Pours a hazy, light orange color, with a big, bubbly, white head. The nose is grapefruit, sawdust, tangerine, and hay. Sweet and juicy, with a mild bitterness. Medium body, with an acidic, pulpy palate. This is a pretty fair hazy IPA. A little weak, but solid.

Pours hazy orange and has tropical fruit and peaches in the hop led aroma. The flavor is pretty sweet with fruity hops and bready malt. It's fairly good overall.

12oz can. Filtered purple-amber body. Foamy head that fades away pretty quickly. Not really that good. The prickly pear doesn't quite cut through the malts, it actually comes off pretty thick, hefty mouthfeel for the style and ABV. Drinkable, but certainly not a beer I would buy again.

12 ounce bottle from Woodman's Green Bay, 9/9/19. Enjoy by 9/18/19. PHEW just made it. Hazy copper, large foamy tan head, good retention. Aroma of dank, resiny hops, toasted malt. Taste is grain, lemony hops. Medium bodied, lingering bitterness. Old school. Nice.

Tap at bowsers, nice place. Reddish orange + clear. A little boozy on the nose. Taste is boozy too and its hard to find the prickly in there. Pretty goosd co2. Perhaps some pepsin on the finish, not bad but it ceratinly leaves an impression.

Bomber from Cap Tap. Pours clear, bright coppery gold with a yellowish head. Aroma is bready, but not like lager bready. A fruit note. Med + body. Flavor has malt, but it also has pineapple. Not enough to be acidic, but enough to make the ale fruity. It seems quite dry to me. Not really bitter. Looks like it's up to pineapple to subdue the malt. Which it does. Oak chips take awhile to make themselves known. Oaky, but only mildly astringent. Interesting flavor combination.
