Poured from can dated 3/2/18 Purple Drank light purple with a thin white head. Aroma is berry puree grains. Taste is semi sweet berry puree added to a nice base beer. No floral hops or pine finish. Almost reminds me of a shandy or a Starbucks refresher. --- Beer merged from original tick of Bumbleberry Frappe IPA on 10 Mar 2018 at 21:37 - Score: 7

Poured from can dated 2/16/18 thanks AFH hazy peach orange with a thin white head. Aroma is light caramel dank earthy floral hops pine notes and loads of tropical citrus. Taste is grassy light scallion pineapple mango pine bitter finish and an underlying caramel sweetness balanced from the lingering pine. Decent brew. Mystic is getting it on. --- Beer merged from original tick of Post Apocalyptic Xanadu on 05 Mar 2018 at 19:02 - Score: 8. Original review text: Almost nailed it! Damn fine though.

5/III/18 - 1Pt. can from a trade, shared @ home, canned: XI/3/17 (2018-239) Thanks to Chris for the trade and to Thomas for muling the beer!
Little cloudy blond to orange beer, small creamy irregular white head, pretty stable, bit adhesive, leaving a nice lacing in the glass. Aroma: super fruity, lots of citrus, grapefruit, some orange peel. MF: soft carbon, medium body. Taste: very fruity, sweet, hoppy, bit resinous, orange peel, grapefruit, pretty hoppy. Aftertaste: soft bitterness, fruity, lovely beer!

4 oz. draft at the source. Almost clear pale yellow color. Aroma is mild grass, subtle herbal notes, and a trace of Apple. The flavor is of a cider / pale ale hybrid. Crisp texture with a odd tartness in the finish. Very mild overall and has more of a cider character to me rather than a hoppy pale ale. Drinkable. Cider fans should like it.

Canned 9/22, drunk 9/22 and same batch drunk a few weeks later.
Thoroughly hazy, maize-amber-golden with a sizeable white head showing moderate retention.
The day-of can was way too raw/green, unsurprisingly and was tough to drink. With some age on it, it softens in to a marmalade-cherry-red grapefruit nose with ample base malt behind it. A pinch of resin and no alcohol or flaw.
Quite malty with big red grapefruit, cherry and lime-mango. Moderately juicy though also quite malt-driven. Engaging carbonation, moderate to high bitterness for the style. Pretty good attenuation and interesting, atypical hop notes for the style. Alcohol well-concealed. Some resin lingers.
