Pint can pours with a crystal clear gold colored body that supports a nice white head that leaves behind a bit of spotty lacing. The aroma offers up white grapes, citrus pith, grapefruit peel and then mild layers of tangelo to orange citrus juice hoppiness. The taste delivers a pleasing wave of grapefruit to white grape to kinda pithy like hop bitterness. The hop bitterness runs from front to back with the occasional welling up of sweeter juicy tangelo and orange wedges. Toward the finish is a faint sense of lager yeasty fruity sort of esters adding another nice facet to the experience. This ends crisp and refreshing. A banger!

Pint can pours with a crystal clear pure gold colored body that supports a near white head of foam. The aroma offers up tangelo, grapefruit, lime and then a sense of tropical fruitiness. Another pull brings up some herbal, green, woody hoppiness. Nice. The taste delivers a pulse of tangelo, tangerine and mango juicy fruitiness blended into the more bitter hop notes of spicy grassiness, herbal hoppiness and woodiness. Those non fruity hop characters take over the flavor toward the finish creating a fun, balanced and integrated hoppiness that ends fairly dry and refreshing. This is hitting the spot. Well done 8 Bit.

Pint can pours with a murky opaque dirty gold colored body with a copper hue that supports a near white head of foam. The aroma offers up mango, cantaloupe, honey dew, peach and then a sort of lemon grass to maybe grapefruit skin counter sensation. The taste delivers soft sweet mango, cantaloupe and peach juicy hoppiness with just thin rings of bitter grapefruit and tangy nectarine like hops to attempt at some balance. The soft sweet tropical notes dominate leaving little room for bitter to tangy hops for some balance. That typed, this really never makes it to overly sweet like so many hazies these days. Cheers for that. In addition, the ABV is not noticed at all. Seems magically modest ABV.

can. 02/24/21 You drive me coconuts Tasted 2024-apr-16 sour beer and sweet fruity aroma notes, cononut is there but blended very well in. A bit like a pina colada drink, but slightly more sour beerish than that. Flavor has more coconut than aroma, also some fruit stone bitterness, still the sweet fruits, pinapple is the most noticable, mango adds a slighly more sourish fruity bitterness. Quite decent fruit forward beer with emphasis of exotic citrussy fruits.

16oz can pours a clear gold with some wispy white head. Nose has malt and corn and bread. Flavor has honey and bread and corn. Finishes off dry. I mean, it's real forgettable.

stamped 06/01/22 pls write month in letters this could be read as January or June. Also please write Best Before or Bottled on. rated dec 23 2023 hazy yellow, beige head. Super nice bitterhoppy aroma grapefruit and pine.. juicy but still pine and grapefruit, perhaps some green grapes. Flavor is grapefruit, citrus fruit peel. The beer feels very dry and crisp, malts are there but leaving the floor for the hops to dominate. not watery. full bodied. alc. really well used and balanced. Great traditional west cost flavored hazy - it's only hazy, not milkshakey and bitterness has been preserved. super nice. Also held very well if the date was best before, if the date was canned, still held very well, tastes more or less like a fresh IPA and it is at least 1.5 years old. As far as I know, has been kept cold the entire time.

Can. black, shows a pixelized mug of beer sour IPA aroma allright, or just sour ale, Not overly fruity, just sour aleish. medium clean sourness, not that much yeast notes. bit boring. Flavor is very good though, quite fruity and the fruits adds some sweetness and solidness to the flavor, the somewhat sweet blueberries can be tasted clearly, but then, the sour beer and the pomegranate adds a more tart and sour balance that works very well. Is so sweet that it reminds me of sweetened belgian fruit sours.

Pint can pours with a hazy opaque glowing copper gold colored body that supports a nice white head of foam. The aroma offers up guava and mango flowing into thin berry like fruitiness and then rounded out by a sense of booze infused honey dew melon. The taste delivers smooth sweet soft mango and guava that's quickly brightened up by tangy notes of tangerine and tangelo citrus notes rimmed thinly by a bit of grapefruit like hop bitterness. To midway it picks up a modest note of raspberry that's mutated into a mango berry fusion that's kind of nice. This one does stray into a sweet territory that I find troublesome but the tangy and bitter citrus ensure this doesn't move into drain pour conclusion. Nice.

Aroma is coriander, belgian yeast, flowers. like a fairly well behaved belgian blonde beer. Flavor is flowery, belgian yeasty, coriander, faint sweet herbal. flavor is very authentic, I would probably guess belgian ale of some sort if I was blind testing, however it lies somewhere between saison, witbeer and ordnary belgian blonde without entirely matching any of them. So a bit confusing. Lots of real belgian beers are also like that so no worries. good easy drinking belgian inspired light (color and abv) beer.
