Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 7

Can (9/2/20) pour from the brewery. Appearance is opaque dark yellow-light brown with tons of sparkle, 2-finger frothy off-white head with fair retention and trace lacing. Aroma is initial apricot, fading to straw. Taste is moderate nondescript citrus, pine, malt backbone, yeast with mild fruity esters. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with frothy texture, soft carbonation, mild alcohol warmth and dry finish as taste. Overall, nice look but aroma is short-lived, taste is lacking a true identity and mouthfeel is just OK.

Can from tfontana, thanks for the trade. Lemony yellow with a slight haze and a thin bubbly white head that dissipates slowly. Citrus earthy grass and a hint of pine with a sweet bready malt an a bit of alcohol.

Can from Mr T fontana, thanks for the opportunity! Hazy lemon yellow with a thin tightly bubbled white head that dissipates quickly. Big citrus and stone fruit with bits of earth and light resin. Moderate sweet bready maltiness provide a nice backbone. Really nice!

Can in trade from tfontana, thanks for the opportunity. Bright lemon orange color with a smattering of white bubbles that dissipate immediately. Citrus and tropical notes as soon as beer hits glass. Light resin and alcohol with a sweet bread and a hint of light caramel.

Can (8/31/20) pour from the brewery. Appearance is opaque yellow with no sparkle, finger-width foamy white head with decent retention and no lacing. Aroma is citrus, fruit and light pine. Taste is sweet citrus, grapefruit, grains and only mild bitterness. Mouthfeel is medium side of light-to-medium bodied with thick, frothy texture, lively carbonation, dry finish as taste with lingering bitterness. Overall, aroma and taste are a bit muddled and non-distinct and it's a bit too carbonated. OK.

Pours a very hazy, banana-gold, with minimal head. Aroma is dank and fruity (smells like candy). Flavor is a touch chalky, followed by dankness, some citrus and tropical fruit, and a light touch of pine-hops at the finish. Very tasty, very good.

16 oz. can direct from the brewery. Big thanks going to tfontana on this trade. Can date 09/08/20. Aroma shows me orange and citrus peel. Flavor has a bold tangerine orange throughout with a mild level of juicy texture. No bitterness with a lighter body. Carbonation is low. Personally I feel like this is just missing something.

16 oz. can directly from the brewery thanks going to tfontana on this trade. Can date 90/02/20. Aroma is grapefruit and soft grass. This shows a distinct marijuana / grassy note throughout. Citrus shows slight juice. However, the weedy character stands out above all. Body is a tad thin. Not bad but today I didn’t want to drink weed.

16 oz. can thanks going to tfontana on this. Canned on 8/31/20. Aromas of citrus, and a whisper of pine. Flavors are citrus and tropical fruit upfront. The herb pine is very very soft in the finish. The character is juicy without any bitterness showing. True to the style!

Can (9/7/20) our from the brewery. Appearance is opaque milky dark yellow-light brown with trace sparkle, finger-width foamy white head with decent retention and nice leggy lacing. Aroma is combination of herb and melon. Taste is balanced mix of sweet cracker/grains, herbal/vegetal and fruit, each sharing the lead. Mouthfeel is medium-to-full bodied with thick, granular texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste with very faint bitterness. No hint of alcohol. Overall, looks and feels the part. Decent complexity and balance though malt surprisingly high in the mix.
