Can from my brother: pours hazy yellow with white head. Aroma is grass, lemongrass, random citrus, tons of herbs. Basically, this beer took the negative aspects of mosaic and magnified them, giving this an excessive herbal and grassy character. Poorly put together beer.

GLB draught, 9/19/24. Clear, mahogany with ruby tints. Small, dark beige head, slowly to smattering of cover. Rich chocolate and vanilla. Not too much roast. Seems fairly malty. Clean. Rich and fruity, with a very warm-fermented yeast, albeit not English, with no sign of butter. Just big fruits and gentle roast and chocolate. Med-light body. Good attenuation. Tons of fruity yeast lingering.

5 ounce draft. Aroma of soft grapefruit, peach, yeast. In the flavor the fruit dominates. Peach, mango, and citrus. A little bit of citrus pith bitterness. Well balanced!

16oz can, from the can. Honey and citrus nose, some zippy hop, clean grain. Flavor is not quite true pils based on the grist, soapy and citrusy hop. Finishes clean with a bite.

Pours murky gold into a shaker. Sickly white head recedes to mottle surface. Dusty lemon aromas. Medium bodied with lemon and grapefruit front to back. Dry pith and peel finish.

Pours hazy caramel into an English pint. Off-white head with medium retention pancakes and turns gloppy as it recedes leaving spotty lacing. Sour butterscotch aromas (uh oh). Soft with butterscotch and caramel upfront turning to overripe melon and mild citrus in the medium length finish. Tastes like homebrew.

Pours murky dark mango into a shaker. Bright white head with good retention recedes leaving soapy lacing. Mango and passion fruit aromas. Soft with lemon joy, overripe mango and dusty lemon peel upfront turning to bitter pith and peel in the dry, lasting length finish.

Pours black into a snifter. Mocha head with medium retention recedes to skim surface. Hot cocoa and pumpernickel aromas. Dry with sweet chocolate syrup and hot espresso upfront turning slightly metallic toasted pumpernickel before the dry, bitter coffee ground finish.
