Can from BD. It pours crazy murky creamy orange with a medium white head. The aroma is sweet, juicy, orange creamsicle, mango, solero, bit green and piney. The taste is smooth, bitter, green, pine needles, light dankness, mango, pineapple, orange creamsicle, grapefruit, fruit punch, powdery, chalky, nectarine and muffin with a smooth finish. Medium body and fine, foamy carbonation. Aroma is rather nice, but taste doesnt quite match up.. Decent gear overall.

Cam at home. It pours crazy cloudy orange with a decent white cap. The aroma is sweet, juicy, bright, stone fruits, apricot, mango, persimmon, plum, brioche, touch of marmalade and some green hop rips. The taste is dry, clean, crisp, brioche, pine needles, green vibes, light dank vibes, floury bread, tropical fruit vibes, tangerine, mango, apricot, peach and just a hint of spice with a dry finish. Medium body and moderate, foamy carbonation. Fresh, bright and balanced. Rather drinkable stuff.

A nice, hazy citrus IPA with a good, grassy hop kick. Doesn't deviate from the type much but it's very drinkable.

Can drunk 8/11/18.
Pale, white gold-to-hay, cloudy with a firm, medium-sized, white head atop.
Nose is pleasantly tart, with light lemon juice character, mild lactic acidity and moderate salinity on the end. Wheat increases its appearance as it warms, with nutty biscuit character. Neither coriander nor lime are overdone here and feature in the beer in a nicely integrated way.
In the mouth it shows a very supple, firm body with creamy, nutty, chewy wheat textures and tight carbonation. Coriander adds gentle herbal notes while lime can't be picked out from the lactic character and there's a very strong salinity on the finish, helping balance out the tartness and juiciness. Lemon, biscuit and big fruity apple and strawberry esters with no alcohol, flaw or adjunct dominance. Quite nice!

Can drunk 8/11/18.
Heavily hazy-to-soupy, bronze-maize-golden, large white head steadily falls to ring/cover.
Nose is dense and packed with both heavily fruity ester (apple, strawberry, nectarine) and deep, green, dank notes featuring red grapefruit, pine (low resin) and unripe pineapple. But there's little/no twang or resin and the malts are gently supportive adding biscuit and cracker behind it. No alcohol or flaw.
In the mouth it's equally dense and subtle at first, with plentiful pine-lemon, yet a very soft, malty texture with good attenuation and hints at some juiciness to come, as it warms/breathes. Pineapple, light mango and sweet lime do emerge and it shows a surprising lack of resin or alcohol. Red grapefruit, mango and ripe nectarine replace some of the potentially "hard", bitter citrus notes eventually. Very soft, almost creamy texture with engaging, proper carbonation and no alcohol or flaw.
