Can at Quarles Fest after figuring out our cousin has COVID. Clean and mild grainy flavor, decent light bodied summer beer. Not too exciting but decent earthy hop notes.

Bottle at Quarles Fest 2025 at Beth's in Chesapeake. Expired in Feb, can't find the year. Tastes like a malty pumpkin soda with artificial flavoring, that's about all I can describe about it. Not really my cup of pumpkin beer.

Drunk in VA beach reading The Dark Forest. Hazy yellow, papaya and mango nose, huge fruit bomb. Flavor is full and fruity, tropical start and then peach aftertaste. Moderate to slim body but that keeps it crushable. Really a great profile and not too thick. Likey like!

Can bought in PA from a drive through beer store, drunk in the hotel in VA Beach. Dark yellow amber, decent lacy head. Malty dank citrus nose. Big West Coast flavor, although the bitterness is not too massive, it's a bit on the sweet side of balance. Not the smoothest bitter character but okay. Quite drinkable after a hot baseball game watching the Tides destroy the Stripers within one nine-run inning!

Can sampled at a Tides game, labeled for the Norfolk Tides. Pretty tasty lager, light mid-roast caramel maltiness. Mid hopped mid bodied goodness.

Drunk at Aldo's Ristorante VA Beach. Moderate head. Decent, not too inspiring, slim body with a solid but one dimensional flavor. Definitely easy drinking with moderate bitterness for an IPA.

Can purchased at a drive in beer store from a variety pack, drunk in Pennsylvania. Yellow hazy, moderate head, great tangerine nose. Flavor is pretty smooth, mild bitterness, big orangey citrus flavor. Slim body, interesting flavor but not too complex. Easy drinking citra goodness.
