Draft at Churchkey. Milky, hazy pour with a soft fluffy head. Soft citrus aroma. Taste offers more juicy citrus flavors and possibly a little lactose

32oz crowler from Arlington Brew Shop, pours a pulpy gold, plenty of frothy, white head. Nose is interesting, peach sorbet, melon, orange, clear grist, maybe even treacle, pineapple. Flavor has the pineapple and peach but its almost popsicle like without being sweet, there is sweetness reading more like grist now, heavy dandelion too. Finishes off dry, medium bodied. In a flight of IPAs, this might get lost. 7 4 8 3 13

On tap and in cans at the brewery, pours a pulpy yellow, white head. Nose on the verge of stinky, onion, grass, orange, grapefruit. Not in your face, but very approachable. Flavor is a bit more bitter than I recall other batches being, orange, grist, flowers, pineapple. Full bodied with some bitterness on the finish. 8 4 8 4 15

On tap, pours a pulpy, dark orange with some lacing, clingy white head. Nose is nice, orange blossom, pineapple smoothie, there is a very clear grist character, husky. Flavor has more and I dig it, more fruit, raw melon and pineapple, orange, herbs, straw, grist and grits. Starchy finish. Cool. Felt like a British hazy IPA hybrid. 8 5 8 5 14

On tap, hazy dark orange, no head. Nose has acid and green grape off the top, then opened up with some weird barrel, butterscotch and vanilla, some white wine vinegar, a clear earthy sour fruit. Flavor rings more of green papaya or preserved lemon, green grapes, apple cider vinegar, there is definite port and/or whiskey at the back. Bright, medium-high acid finish. Unique to say the least. 7 2 7 3 13 Re:rate from a 2019 bottle, same batch, in May 2021. Pours a clear, dark orange with no head. Nose has a lot of port, that white port, persimmon, quince pase, some sour mojo orange. Flavors follow with the white port and the oranges. Sour barrel and persimmon and vinegar too. Oily and tart finish. Much better than the first rate. 8-3-8-4-14
