Not really getting a banana pudding vibe here; instead, lots of corn sweetness is present with a little vanilla, plenty of nutmeg, and a shitload of yeast. Weird bitterness on the back end doesn’t belong at all. Not good.

Sample at Daily Growler Powell. Slightly hazy copper-amber color with a medium thin off-white head that dissipates quickly to an outer ring. Spotty lace. Aroma of citrus, hops and malt. Light-bodied with flavors of slightly funky watermelon, grassy hops and malt. The finish is fruity with a watermelon aftertaste. Decent overall.

16 oz. can, pours a cloudy dirty orange with a medium white head. Nose is a weird messy mix of orange juice, vanilla, lactose, and restrained citrusy hops. Flavour somehow is cohesive, with citrusy hop upfront that hops this together, complemented by vanilla beans, oranges, bitter orange zest, and a touch of lactose. Somehow, all these strange adjuncts work out reasonably cohesively in this hazy DIPA—they don't drown out the hops, nor are they cloying or harsh. You could say this becomes a bit muddled, but it's not too bad. Surprisingly solid.

16 oz. can, pours a hazy copper golden with a small white head. Nose is full of peach pur�e, cinnamon, and brown sugar upfront — very sweet. Flavour is too yogurty, with lots of nutmeg and cinnamon upfront, followed by brown sugar, and lots of lacto. Too sweet and adjunct-laden without anything good about it. Lame.

Banana, vanilla, graham cracker nose, strong with light clove hints. Shimmering amber, medium head, nice lace. Banana fluff, bread crust, grass, nutmeg. Chewed gum overtones. Graham cracker finish. Medium body, easy carbonation. I'm dying to know just how many additives were used. Either way, this was a very nice beer.

Very clear orange colored body with a lightly coppered glow, all with a thinnish, just off-white head that fades fairly quickly and barely leaves a sliver on top, all with a faint orange glow with some nice bubbles coming up. Aroma of super dank key limes, brine, salt, malt, icing sugar, yeast and a bit more funky lime notes - perhaps the leaves? Medium-bodied; Very grassy and herbal profile at first that really does show the lime leaves and some subtle peppery and spice characteristic, maybe just coriander seed though, with some yeast notes, a dry, fresh-cut grass bite and a little sweetness at the end, but the limes dominate here at the end as well, but real limes this time with some tart aspects. Aftertaste shows a crisp tart lime bite, but the sweetness persists and makes it a bit more robust with some malt and readiness towards the very end. Overall, a nice and crisp, dry, yet soured lime-based beer with a good deal of malts and yeast coupled with bunches of sweetness to go with the light brine and very soured, tart lime flavors to make this complex and enjoyable throughout. I sampled this twelve ounce can, purchased from Total Wine in Alexandria, Virginia on 02-November-2020 for US$2,79 sampled at my house here in Washington on 05-June-2021.

Kroger, Rio Hill. Can. Hazy gold with an eggshell head. Lemon-lime, lactose, green grass nose. Lemon zest, lactose, grass, light lime. Not very good, and the lactose was unnecessary.

Weird and very boozy, with a lot of sweet clove and cocoa notes on top of vanilla, nuts, and honey liqueur. Odd pint.
