Aromas are a slightly tart fruit punch. Flavors are similar to nose, but more tart. Good body and carbonation. Nice beer.

Hazy Gold tap pour. Strong POG smell without any sour character. But some big fruit SweeTart in the first sip. Guessing that's largely from kumquat and orange. Tartness makes a nice edge around the sweet fruit juice taste. I'm getting a big pucker going, even through the juicy fruit taste. 8 3 7 5 16

Aromas are citrus and other fruit with just slightly oxidized resin. Flavors are similar to nose, add in some melon. Mildly sweet up front with a bittersweet finish. Not bad not great.

12oz can. Quite sessionable, easy going, almost a better quality Leinenhugels type vibe. Pear and apple sort of meld together into one enjoyable enough tone, albeit a little candy and sugary. Easy drinking, OK for what it is....but not a great beer in any way.

16oz can. Big candy fruit tone, guava and passionfruit smoothed over by deep orange tones. Over the top flavor, pleasant sour tone. Pretty enjoyable for the style.

16oz can. Another hazy with less than ideal hop varietals. Not a ton of hop depth in general, sort of earthy and bland. Drinkable, but more of a bland hazy Pale Ale than an IPa of any sort.

16oz can. Rather odd tone to it overall, something tastes off. Odd plasticy bitterness, some tropical fruit in there but a wholly unappealing base. Not good at all.

16oz can. Cascade is pretty nice here, though not really appropriate for the style. Mosaic and Citra bland it out here, not much definition from them. 6pack level second tier haze...not really anything true about it. Cascade works pretty well though, wish it was in a more balanced beer.

16oz can. Unique enough combination. Deep pine, spearmint, lemon. Unique enough hop combo, works for me for another one and done from YB. Nothing really that stellar about it, but an OK Pale Ale.
