Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 6.5 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 7 | Overall - 7

2 week old pint can
A: Hazy deep yellow with a tall long lasting head
S: Tart citrus, stone fruit and floral notes over faint wafer cookies.
T: Moderately bitter and citrus forward with sweet/tart lemon-lime zest, pulp and pith. Woody malts then join as if an afterthought.
M: Frothy carbonation, light body and clean feel with no hop burn.
O: Not the usual onslaught of pineapple and peach. Better than most hazies IMO.
