Can pour from trade with Steve. Cloudy orange with tons of sparkle, big head with good retention and splotchy lacing. Aroma is strong apricot, citrus, tropical fruit, hint of herb. Taste follows aroma. Slightly thin for the style/ABV (which can be deceiving--watch out!) but smooth, frothy texture, no sign of alcohol, soft carbonation and dry finish as taste. Good strength and complexity. Nice introduction to brewer!

16 oz can in a trade with tfontana. Thank you for another brewery! Flavor is sweet tropical fruit, apricot, and mild herb. Texture has a ton of juice with zero bitterness. Bold fruit throughout. Exactly what the style calls for.

Shaker pint draft at 18th Ward Brewing in Brooklyn, New York. The pour is a full cloudy hazed yellow orange with a minimal white head. The aroma is citrus, a bit of bitter rind, and some nice tropical floral. The taste is grain and citrus lemon fruit, the floral and faint rind bitterness. The palate is light bodied with active natural carbonation. Easy drinking, good one to start the day.
