Canned 8/10/17, drunk 8/12/17.
Super-pale, platinum blonde body shows light haze and a small, white head with med-low retention.
Orange juice, mango, juicy pineapple are all quite promising and alluring, up front. Add some fuzzy lime, passion fruit and more tropical character and the possibilities seem endless here. No resin, heavy grapefruit or alcohol and only sparse cracker-like malt.
Tons of tangerine, pineapple, mango and white wine in the mouth. Good, restrained bitterness. They do get a good complexity here from all the hops and it's not just another juice and honey rendition of the NE pale ale. Great passion fruit notes give tartness, earthiness and zesty spice on the end. With extended warming, it's just bursting forth with passion fruit character. Really evolves in to a glass of complex hop juice (albeit enjoyable hop juice). But I gotta ask, where's the beer? There's almost no beer character. Just a hop tincture.

4 oz. sample draft at the source. Aroma shows me very green whole cone hop cones. Flavor is earthy pine, mild/ weak tropical hints in the center. Malt bill is subdued. Ends with a mega ton of dirty/ dry earthy hops. Bitterness is on the stronger side.

4 oz. sample draft at the source. Aroma shows me tropical fruit; pineapple, guava, and a bready malt backbone. The bitterness is really low in strength. Juicy texture. Nicely juice. Yep go ahead and say it.... “It is a juice Bomb”

4 oz. sample draft at the source. Pours cloudy yellow with a fine-bubbled head. Aroma typical sweet malts and yeast. Flavor is is close to a German Helles. Shows me malty corn, sweet grain, and light yeasty notes. Mouthfeel offers light body and steady carbonation. Pretty much what it should be.

Draft at York River Landing.Hazy bright yellow, lasting head. Aroma is grapefruit, tropical hints, pine, and pale grain. Flavor had a grain balance to go with the myriad of hops. Citrus peel, grass, and some floral tones. Bitterness is medium in strength( lets you know it is an IPA ). Dry finish. One of the better (newer) brews I had had from this brewery.

Pours a hazy bright-orange-gold color with a medium foamy white head that diminishes gradually to a film. Sticky strings of lace. Aroma of apricot, yeast and malt. Medium body with flavors of tart apricot, mildly funky yeast and doughy malt. The finish is tart with an apricot aftertaste. Pretty good overall.

16 oz. can thanks to Willrunforbeer on the share. Not really fair to drink this AFTER the four Trillium brews we had tonight but.... Hazy bright yellow appearance. Aroma is mild fruit, bready malt, and weak floral hints. Yeah, seems a little flat thing a canning date of 9-18-17. Maybe if I am in Portland I will re-sample on draft. In the can it just seems lack-luster. To be fair, no brewing flaws or anything off. We just drink real high end. We are privileged beer drinkers.
