Draught at the brewery, 9/12/18.
Chill-hazed, brass-golden with a white head fading steadily to a ring.
Super-intense yellow fruit notes much like the Night Shift Prism I just had. Not quite as tropical-tinged but still heavily fruity, no doubt the yeast contributing a lot to this. Does gain some peach-mango as it progresses and slowly yields a cracker-like malt base below it, with lightly nutty wheat-like biscuit notes, as well.
Peach-mango with strong cracker, continues the flavor with tons of fruitiness and moderately acidic hop notes towards the finish. Great bitterness but also a good balance between the wheat and juicy hop notes. Almost a tart, juicy, NE IPA and quite drinkable. Lots of flavor for its size.

Draught at the brewery, 9/12/18.
Soupy maize-yellow-golden. White head falling steadily to nothing.
Smells super pineappley and quite good on that account, with obvious real puree used and both good integration and attenuation. A bit of canned-like sweetness remains, however, but it adds a big juice character and works well for the "style". Very rich, honey-like malts with big biscuit notes. Not a ton of hops but not noticeably lacking, either. No alcohol or flaw.
In mouth it's very pineapple-forward, with big, juicy notes mixing slowly with the beer. A bit too much/too dominant, but it's hard to get too mad as it's quite enjoyable. Pine-orange hop notes balance it slightly though this is very much about the fruit, ester and lactose - not so much the hops. Pretty good stuff, with a great texture, carbonation and reasonably well-attenuated.

16 oz. can provided by ClarkVV. Aroma shows citrus, melon, and a honey like hint. The flavor has a very juicy character with absolutely no bitterness. Large melon pulp, citrus, and a very mild herbal hints. Pretty nice brew.
