Nice riwaka here, though the strata comes on pretty big as well. Grapefruit and tangerine. Light hop tang finish. Nice. Tap at Dominion.

Pours a hazy, orange-pineapple, with minimal head. Aroma is a touch muted, with citrus and tropical fruit. Flavors more pronounced, with citrus and tropical fruit and a touch of green onion/garlic dankness. Soft mouthfeel. Moderate hop bitterness running through the finish.

Pours a hazy, orange-lemon, with smallish head. Aroma is at turns dank, as well as full of citrus and tropical fruit notes. Flavors follow, with a fair amount of underlying sweetness. Mouthfeel is soft and smooth and just a bit thin. Moderate hop bitterness in the finish.

Canned 3/6/26, drunk 4/4/26.
This stuff is clear as day! I'll have to change this to a West Coast (entered it as NEIPA assuming it was such).
No bad OG WC vibes, though. No caramel, toast, resin, sweaty, overboiled C-hop. None of it. Rather fruity with lots of stone fruit, juicy citrus and big white bread-like malt sweetness. Nothing aggressive/acidic here at all, to be honest, and other than the clarity, there's nothing WC about it. Not even any pine or grapefruit, really.
There is ample bitterness in the flavor, not a ton, but enough. It's big and spicy with fruity, lightly juicy, fresh citrus and kumquat-like vibes. Soft, deep malts that are properly attenuated and there's a lingering, vibrant tropical fruit character. This is damned-fine beer; no wonder they made a name for themselves despite being in Sandusky.

Canned 9/27/2024, drank 10/12/2024. Cloudy pale orange body, thick puffy cream head. Aroma a blend of tropical fruits (pineapple, lychee), citrus, melon, and sweaty cattiness. The body is largely similar with a nice lychee/melon/passionfruit/strawberry base with peppery/catty elements, pineapple, and grapefruit resins providing bite. Sweet but not overly so; smooth, creamy, and full-bodied. Great.

Canned 9/27/2024, drank 10/19/2024. Pale cloudy orange-brown body, thick yellowish cream head. Big spicy nose, dank and catty, with notes of pineapple, stone fruits, lychee, and pink grapefruit rind. Sweet and juicy with stone fruits and lychee punctuated by assertive pink grapefruit rind and catty dankness. Some hops burn. Very good.
