Cloudy deep mango orange body, dense medium cream head. Aroma passionfruit, melon, and mixed tropical fruits. Soft, creamy body, full but not sweet, with white grape, melon, berries, bubblegum, and an herbal dankness.

Cloudy bright orange body with clumps of sediment, thin cream head. Tart tropical nose with pineapple, guava, and banana. Body has an initial (and persisting) sharp rindy bite and a wash of tart tropical fruits, eventually yielding to gummy melon and stone fruits. Like other Old Nation hazies, this is enveloped in a flaccid acid wash that buffers the drinker from dry-hopped brashness. There is a lot to like here, but the weird mouthfeel is a distinctive and persistent flaw that keeps ON out of the best-of-class brewers of hazy deliciousness.

Hazy (but not densely cloudy) medium orange body, thin off-white head. Aroma herbal and dank at serving temperature. Body is creamy and moderately sweet with a big dank bite on a backdrop of stone fruits, melon, candy cigarettes, and lactose. Solid and well-balanced, perhaps lacking pizzazz.

Cloudy medium orange body, thin off-white head. Sticky, juicy, tropical nose. Body is crisp with leafy notes and muted stone fruits; a pronounced bitterness is the most distinctive element. Hints of bubblegum or candy in the finish. A mixed bag.
