Draft pour pint, enjoyed at Breakway Bar and Grill, John Wayne. Hazy golden orange pour, fades down to a thin fizz head. I dont ever seek out American hefes unless I'm pretending to be a ticker. For some reason, for the first time ever perhaps, I was in the mood for one. Not bad, though pretty standard as far as my bored expectations go for the style. Flavor is cool up front, sweet taste that mongers to a banana. Floral notes that remain light and keeps it an easy drinker. The flavor coats and lasts. I'll probably still be tasting this when I land back in Seattle. Wheat is an appropriate amount, and doesnt provide a complete overkill. Overall I enjoyed this, so I suppose it's a rose in a field of daisies.

Can. A- Poopy diaper, mild pineapple. A- Golden color, hazy liquid, white head. T- Wheat, rotten pineapple. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, bland finish. O- Not even remotely good as the Melon Cart. Pineapple in beer is hit or miss for me. This was okay at best. A bit skunky and mostly wheat coming through.

Can. A- Cucumber, honeydew, cantaloupe, slightly sweet. A- Gold color, hazy liquid, white head. T- Honeydew, cantaloupe, cucumber. P- Light body, average texture, average carbonation, crisp finish. O- Surprised with how much melon you actually get from this and natural tasting too. Not sweet, not artificial, and pretty damn refreshing. Would be an excellent summer mower beer. Pleasant surprise this one was.

Howler bought at Liquor Shed.
Pours a clear 24k gold, not much foam and short lasting but considering the abv, not unexpected. What little foam there is does leave some lacing.
The smell is a danky, grapefruit, malty combination that has a surprisingly low presence of alcohol. Sweet vs bitter...bitter wins out.
Dank bitterness from the grapefruit and tropical fruit, lots of malty sweetness which I expected. Alcohol, again well hidden except after the swallow.
Smooth bodied due in part to the relatively low carbonation.
Not many Triple IPAs under my belt but I liked this one.

Can pour into nonic pint glass from The Beer Store, Nashua. Appearance is hazy, pale greenish-yellow with minimal sparkle, finger-width, crackly fizzy white head with poor retention and no lacing. Aroma is strong mango, fruit. Taste is mango, fruit, light wheat. Palate is light bodied with thin texture, soft carbonation, sweet finish. Overall, the mango is pretty dominant and not much else. Still, pretty crisp and refreshing.

12 oz can poured, serving as my Sunday morning football coffee. Poured to a mug. Dark coffee brown pour. Thin bubble tan head that fades. Aroma is a sweet, slightly spiced chocolate and coffee, with a matching flavor. Smooth caramel, milk chocolate finish. Solid AM brew.
