Draft at the brewpub. Aroma is tropical with a bit of greenish cleanser in the back half of the palate. Pours turbid orange-yellow with small white head that leaves many dotted patterns down the glass. Flavor is orange, which gives way to solvent or fusel attributes in the second half similar to the aroma. Maybe it is a grittiness/earthy green from the dry hopping, but rough around the edges.

This is fantastic and one of the best I have had from Blue Oak. Slushy , turbid yellow-gold with moderate white head that retains. Massive amounts of citrus on both the aroma and flavor. Sightly dank flavor and large amounts of resins and full mouthfeel - as though as were a DDH. Great beer.

On tap at the brewery. Pours hazy yellow with full white head. Flavor is citrusy with earth. Thinnish mouthfeel has the flavor drop off quickly.
