16 oz can from the brewery, 10/5/25 (canned 10/2/25). Big Congrats to Brendan, Scott, Steve, and the rest of the AE team on their 5th Anniversary! Pours a fully hazy orange color with a large, foamy, and frothy white head that leaves heavy lacing on the glass. Tons of hop flavor, with some juicy tropical hops (mango, passion fruit, papaya), some pineapple/ pine, and some white grape all coming through. Bit of that heavy hop oil / green hop thing on the flavor profile, but otherwise it's just bold and extra hop forward. Not much not to like here, curious to see if a week or two longer in the can settles it a bit, bit it's damn good right now.

Pour is a cloudy yellow with a large white head. Aroma is lemon drop hops. Flavor is crisp malt and some bitter lemon peel hops. Little bitter finish. Good but not really a stand out.

16 oz can from the brewery, 8/12/25. Canned 8/7/25. Pours a mostly clear golden-orange color with a large white head and plenty of lace. Big, bright hop aroma of pine, orange, pineapple, and melon. Grassy as well. Really bright and clean, Doesn't have the WC dryness, nor the EC sweetness. Rather balanced (leans slightly dry). Does have a WC flavor profile. Overall this one is bright and tasty. Clean and a little dry. Quality, quality stuff. Pretty sure I could crush a ton of this one.
