Draft at Icicle Brewing. Clear golden pour, small white foamy head. Fruity aroma, biscuity. Taste starts with a nice tropical vibe, floral notes, fruity. Biscuity malts provide a nice base. Ends up with a small crisp bite.

Earl is our coconut, dark malt, roast and a bit of cocoa. Flavors are similar to nose, bittersweet with coconut standing out. Decent but not great.

16oz can from Tavour. Hazy pale golden pour, one finger fluffy white head. Aroma is gentle at first, then a big burst of grapefruit peel hits. Taste is zesty grapefruit, light orange pulp. Tangy, zesty finish lingers for a bit

16oz can from Tavour. Pale yellow, hazy pour, thin soft white foamy head. Light citrusy aroma with a little stone fruit. Taste is bready, citrusy, soft, faint vanilla. Criminally smooth. Very tasty and way too easy to drink

Can from Tavour. Pours hazy gold with a large, transient white head. Aroma of citrus and other tropicals. Could be mango. Med body. Flavor is juicy, yet towards dry. Moderately bitter, or even less. Flavor is mango, citrus, melon and likely more. There's a sharp prickle. Can barely find the malt. Maybe there's some pineapple to account for prickles. Turns a bit earthy towards the finish. Seemed simple but went complex.
