Pours clear straw into a shaker. Bright white head with excellent retention recedes to coat surface. Corn and citrus aromas. Hot with sweet lime and corn upfront turning to thick tortilla in the medium length finish.

Pours a nice hazy amber from a can. Aroma is a stale musty bread with a citrus note. Flavor is mostly stale bread with a horrible aftertaste. Meh.

Canned 12/12/17, drunk 1/13/18.
Lightly hazy, blonde-golden with a slight copper tint. Good-sized, white head showing moderate retention.
Light tropical fruit and strong pineapple; very Citra-forward with light, but mostly scallion/garlic-free Mosaic supporting. Orange, pine, leafy green and spicy notes have just a hint of resin, with low alcohol though some hotter esters. Malts show good depth and provide competent, balancing honey-like notes.
In the mouth it's soft, quite dry, malty and well-carbonated with leafy, green pine, strawberry, melon and pineapple. Not flashy or overly yeasty, nor is it incredibly juicy, but it's well-done and doesn't lean too heavily on the NE IPA style, despite obviously being mostly influenced by it. Cracker, biscuit, bright red and yellow fruits linger. Nice. Competent.

Bottle drunk 7/21/17.
Lightly-to-moderately hazy, unfiltered but not turbid or cloudy, soft tangerine-lemon-golden body is topped by a moderate amount of well-retained, white head.
Juicy and and tropical in the nose with a very "round" and "sweet" honey-like malt character that easily balances. Mango, papaya and melon persist with some slightly spicier pine and pepper notes, though it certainly never gets aggressive or resinous. No alcohol or flaw.
Sweet, biscuity, strong on the honey and soft, though with a touch too much sugar and a light buttery element. The hops are done well here, fresh, juicy, tropical and showing no resin or any other issue (cat, garlic, heavy pine, etc...). Texture and carbonation are pretty well on-point. No alcohol noted.

Touch of haze, fruity nose, malts are a bit sticky, heavy and the hops aren't as bright as on the nose.

16 oz can, thanks to Willrunforbeer on the share. Aroma is lemon, orange, grass. Taste is strong grassy and a mix of bitter herbal punches of hops. Palate is light-to-medium bodied with thin texture. It is sessionable and can be a decent lawnmower beer. Ok.

Pours slightly hazed gold into a shaker. Bright white head with good retention recedes leaving soapy lacing. Sour butterscotch and scallion aromas. Medium bodied with hot caramel and bitter earth front to back. Lasting pith and resin finish.

Fresh 12 oz. bottle thanks to Willrunforbeer! Much thanks for this new MA Brewer. Bottled on 9/13/16. Aroma is mild scallions, grass clippings and decent citrus.

Flavor is Mosaic hops upfront with light hints of citrus. Texture is effervescent with a dry grassy bitterness. Medium in body with slightly lingering grass after the swallow. Got to saw, this is pretty nice. No flaws or concerns. The recipe is nice.
