A 12 oz can located on the shelves of Freeman’s Liquor in OKC last month. A local beer from the city, it’s what I was wanting to find. My chalice glass receives the pour and I determine an opaque, orange-yellow body completed by a thin amount of off-white foam. I find the smell to be, well, interesting. Citrus, tropical fruit and white bread, appears to be a conglomeration of styles. A sip now, ah, I think it is decidedly and blessedly west coast. Apricots, hops, grain, some lemon, varnish, crackers and a touch of honeydew. Some bitter and some sweet, not bad. Decent little beer I have here.

Strangeways. Cold & they wont shut the front door. Hazy, dull, pale orange, lingering froth. Pulpy oj nose with an herbal backdrop. Pithy yet juicy, semi-sweet oj, white onion, heavy bitter rind finish. Low volume CO2, easy abv. Definition of juicy.

Pour is a cloudy blonde with a large fizzy white head. Aroma is banana and clove yeast. Flavor is bubblegum sweet with some wheat malt and a little banana after taste. This was just OK. Going in the right direction just a little thin around the edges.

Colorful label on this 16 oz can that came from the city's only craft beer store. I pulled out my New Belgium snifter earlier for tonight's tastings and make the pour. A totally hazy, gold-orange liquid with an off-white top of lacey foam. The scent tilts towards tropical with just a bit of citrus. I take a drink and get mango, cantaloupe, grass and orange peel. Above average for the style, it's just that I am over NE IPAs.

I have a 12 oz can from Mr. T's fine craft beer shop that is stamped with an apparent born-on date of 5/30/23. Another hot and dry day in West Texas, I believe I am ready to sample an IPA. The tab is popped and I tilt the can into a Cowtown tulip glass. I determine a milky, lemonade colored liquid completed by a lengthy head of very fine, very white bubbles. I smell honeydew melon and citrus. The taste is interesting, yes, I can say that. Slightly dank, grapefruit, still some melon but less intense than the nose, hops and malt. There is a decent bitterness at the finish, I appreciate that. A decent diversion.

Hazy, frothy, ok goblet pour @Thirsty's. Weak orange, a little yellow onion, soft herbal nose. Kinda weak all around here. Subtle orange juice sweetness upfront but it goes all pith fast. Very slight herbal floral & saline, a little paper, but the OJ lingers. Soapy finish. It's not as astringent as grapefruit & is appreciated. Okay-ish, but very tired of hazies.
