6/10
Thin body with decent roast character. The finish is bitter but sort of tastes like a hoppy bitter?

Draft at brewery. Excited to get this rare style for me. Orange pour. Minimal head and bubbles. Nose is some tropical fruits and grass. Tastes of guava, mango, pine, grassy, some herbal bits. Smooth and little lifeless palate.

Pint at the brewpub. It's a dark, dark brown--virtually opaque black--with finger-width almost nitro looking creamy light brown head with no lacing. Aroma is straightforward roasted malt and chocolate with mild berry component. Taste is sweet/tart blueberry, roasted malt base. Mouthfeel is light side of light-to-medium bodied with thin texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, don't love the berry component. A bit thin.

Draft at Cheeky Monkey. Poured a clear copper orange color with a small white head. Aroma was big, sweet resin. Honey, with pineapple, tropical fruits, sticky. Kind of shocked at the alcohol burn on this one with it being 8.4%. A touch hotter than I expected.

Draft at Cheeky Monkey. Poured a clear dark yellow color with a medium sized off-white head. Aroma was light tartness, some sour notes. Pleasant sweetness, some raspberries, other berries. Pleasant stuff.

Draft at Cheeky Monkey. Poured a mostly clear dark yellow color with not much of a head, but with a decent amount of carbonation. Aroma was light, sweet malts. Very mild.

Draft at Cheeky Monkey. Poured a slightly hazy orange color with a medium sized white head. They dumped fresh blueberries in this, which with the carbonation of the beer, had the blueberries moving around like a lava lamp for a few minutes. Aroma was blueberry muffin, sweetness.

Draught at Cheeky, 9/9/18.
Lightly hazy, peachy-gold with a small, white head atop showing moderately-low retention.
Light cherry and pineapple in the nose mixing with a good amount of malt that adds rich honey, biscuit and very light caramel. Light yellow fruits on the end, though I wouldn't go as far as to call it juicy. No alcohol or flaw and like their other beers, quite low on aromatics.
In the mouth it's sweet and fruity with cherry-orange flavors and a soft texture, reasonable attenuation and maltiness and no booze. Low bitterness, quite drinkable if quite unremarkable.

Draught at Cheeky, 9/6/18.
Clear, hay-to-blonde-golden. Small, white head atop fading quickly to a ring.
Good touch of notable Galaxy in the nose, though again, it's pretty light. Just a hint of spice and tropical fruit with a touch of lemon, cracker, light honey and cereal behind it.
In the mouth there's more light Galaxy, adding light mango and guava notes with nectarine and meyer lemon mixing with honey-like malts and a bit of buttery cereal. Good attenuation again, high carbonation and no alcohol noted. Very light, clean and plain with low aromatics and flavors.
