Can (bottled 11/1/19) pour from BevMax, Hamden. Appearance is opaque, yellow-light brown-orange with small, dark floaties at the edges of the glass, light sparkle, finger-width white foamy head with poor retention and mild leggy lacing. Aroma is fruit, citrus, a bit dank; some grapefruit as it warms. Taste is strong citrus and late candied fruit. Mouthfeel is medium side of light-to-medium bodied with smooth, fairly thick, frothy texture, average-to-lively carbonation, hint of alcohol warmth, and sweet fruity finish with late lingering mild bitterness. Overall, more citra than mosaic. Pretty hazy and juicy. Nice.

16oz can isn't hazy at all, just gold. Malty nose, orange, grapefruit, perfume. Flavor has that, some grass, some orange, perfume. Finishes medium bodied. Fine but unspectacular.

16 oz can from Tavour. Hazy IPA. You know what it looks like. Aroma is melon, citrus, some tropical. Taste brings a slight spicy snap, hoppy notes, faint citrusy sweetness. Nothing out of the ordinary.

Can shared with the Bangkok Tasting crew. Poured a hazy golden orange colour with a thin white head. The aroma is grainy malt, stone fruits. The flavour is moderate to light bitter, with a crisp, super fresh, juicy citrus, light dry woody hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with average to soft carbonation.
