Bottle at home. Opaque black color, full sized brownish colored head. Aroma and flavor are malts, firm to heavy roast, malt bitters, earthy, malt bitter, earthy bitter. Older bottle so perhaps the chocolate notes are gone cause I don't get them anymore. Not bad though, solid beer.

Pours a hazy orange, nice head of foam, good lacing and retention.

Smells of oranges, mango, some pineapple, quite tropical.

Taste is somewhat bitter but juicy oranges, mango, pineapple, hoppy but also leans towards sweet.

Good mouthfeel as it coats my tongue.
Overall, good Hazy.

Canned February 25th.

US Pint can from a Trader Joe's and drank at my daughters on 5th April 2025, poured into an old Corsendonk stemmed tulip glass. Hazy dull orange, small white affair on top. Tropical fruits abound in the nose and taste, it's semi sweet and certainly not 'dank' like some in this style.

On tap at Gourmet Haus. Pours mahogany-brown with a very small tan head. Sweetness, brown sugar on the aroma. Flavor follows through with brown sugar and booze. Moderate vanilla from the barrel. Really nice all around on a great beer.

Tap at Gourmet Haus. Pours very deep brown with light brown head. Massive strawberry comes out on both the aroma and flavor. Has the flavor of strawberry powder. Slight chocolate and alcohol heat. A very unique beer that I felt leaned into the strawberry too much to make it truly enjoyable.
