Poured from 375mL bottle. Hazy bright yellow gold with small white head. Peach and apricot with just a hint of tropical notes, buggy, hint of oak. Quite nice. Similar to Somewhereness with a touch less complexity.

Bottle from City Beer Mission (June 2022). Slight haze, pale gold, not much head. Soft brett C aroma, with floral honey notes. Mild bitterness, light brett, again a touch of honey, good fruit notes. Medium body. Nice complexity to this. I'm happy.

375ml @ Ryan's. Appearance: hazy blonde with a white head. Aroma: Brett, a bit funky, some lemony notes. Taste: along the same lines, a bit too much of Brett character in here accompanied with lemony acidity. Overall: ok.

16oz can at share. Dark brown pour with thin beige head. I wasn't expecting the huge mint aroma and taste. For me, the mint didn't add anything to the beer, and distracted from the black IPA underneath. Not a fan.

16oz can pours out hazy golden topped with a white head. Nose is citrus hops and a little sour note. Taste is more of the nice citrus tropical hops and some tart sour notes.

Can from the brewery. Hazy ochre, stable, frothy, off-white head. Aroma of ripe mandarin, peach, pineapple, cheese, shallot, moist pepper. Taste has sweetish unripe peach, grape & pineapple over a doughy malt base with spicy notes and bitter citrus peel. Floral & peppery hoppy finish, bittersweet stone fruit and minty notes. Medium body, creamy texture, soft carbonation. As solid as a Hazy can be.

I found a pint can at the Total Wine in Santa Fe a month ago. This evening I will sample it in my New Belgium snifter, time for the pour. It arrives a clear gold-yellow in color with a significant head of completely white foam. The smell is grain and water, what I call the basic beer scent. And the drink, well, I think it is rather good for the pedestrian style. A light sweet corn opening, a bit of lemon, malt, hay and a small bitterness at the end. Some lacing going on here. This brew would be good with a tortilla burger plate at Maria's on Cordova Rd.
