Can at home. Hazy gold and only the slightest of soapy heads. Nose is spicy saaz. Tastes herbal, peppery, of steel barrel, crackery, very zippy and crisp. Dry finish. Hits the spot.

Super hazy golden and straw coloured body with a nice two to three centimetre tall off-white head that fades pretty slowly and leaves a nice lace on the sides. Aroma of alcohol, smooth malts, a bunch of oranges, lactose and a good vanilla and cream scent here with the hops the strongest of course that do possess a slight bitterness from the alpha acids, but the clean oranges are pretty pungent, too. Aftertaste shows some rich lactose and creamy sweetness with vanilla, icing sugar and some pungency right here as well that ends with some enjoyable fruity qualities and a dash of bitterness here, but the balance is struck just about right throughout here. Overall, a pretty nice and strong beer with a nice balance between super rich, wheatie and especially oaty malts and a pungent hop note that brings out some oranges, but the yeast, alcohol and rich lactose really show the finish here in a good way. A very nice beer and well worth trying to find if you like older school or even new school IPAs - this one is very nice and robust throughout. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Knightly Spirits in Orlando (Orange Blossom Trail), Florida on 31-December-2022 for US$5,99 sampled in my hotel room here in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on 04-February-2023.

16oz can from Lexington Co-op. Dark brown pour, ring of head. Peanut butter first in the aroma, chocolate, roasty malts. Peanut butter follows through to the taste, sweet, chocolate, dries out a bit, but super tasty

Lots of papaya, grapefruit, peach, and berry, with a slight grainy sweetness and a mineral bitterness on the finish. Hazy is as hazy does.
