Can @ The Hoptimist, Manhattan (June 2025). Pours extremely hazy bright yellow with a large foamy off-white head, citrus-mint aroma, adequate carbonation, bitter citrus peel taste with faint rotten lemon flavor, thin body, long bitter finish. Quite bitter for a hazy pale ale.

On tap at the brewery. Slightly below average pulp. Looks the part but a muted nose that has just tropicals and yellow cake disappoints. Flavor follows and is slightly saccharine. Off dry. 5 3 5 2 9

Can (4/10/24) pour shared by Steve. Hazy dark yellow with thin head with excellent retention and nice lacing. Aroma is strong lemon citrus. Taste is lemon, pineapple, tropical fruits, citrus zest. Smooth, frothy texture, average carbonation and lightly bitter finish as taste.
