Kind of a dull hazy appearance. The aroma is bright, however, with stone fruit and some tropical notes. On the palate, however, it's thin. There's very little malt propping this up. The hop bitterness is also lacking... this just feels really weak, and ultimately the lack of sugar or bitterness fails to provide adequate support for what would otherwise be some decent hop notes. Is their flagship pale still their best?

Gold, fast fading head. Light spicy/sweet nose. Not much here except an odd spicy lasting bitterness. Poor looking and poorly balanced... poor effort overall

A very poor looking beer seriously affect my rating. Opaque amber, no head. Somewhat dank tropical nose. Juicy palate, dry notes in mid, light fruity bitterness

473mL can. Pours black with a small tan head. Coconut and cayenne on the nose. Flavour has a really nice mix of coconut, cinnamon, vanilla, dark chocolate, and bourbon barrels. A touch of the cayenne at the end. Very nice.

473mL can, pours an opaque, ugly orange with a small white head. Aroma is full of passionfruit, citrusy, lacto, and a touch of orange. Flavour is like a passionfruit juice, with passionfruit, orange juice, plenty of citrusy, and yogurt. Cheap fruited kettle sour but not too egregious.

Opaque. No head. Lots of hop burn. Mmmm...hop burn. Meh on that front, and every other. No malt support. Unclear hop expression.
