6.5
Appearance - 3 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 7.5 | Texture - 7 | Overall - 7.5

2 month old can
A: Hideous dull pondwater brown with small head that fell to a thick ring.
S: Muted grapefruit and pineapple with a hint of toast.
T: Damn, it's actually good! Hops are generic citrus, stone fruits and light pine. Malts are woody with some caramel sweetness, providing nice balance.
M: Fine carbonation, light body and a lightly sweet sticky finish.
O: Finally a hazy that tastes like something other than pineapple and peach. Ugly as shit but quite tasty.

Month old pint can
A: Clear turbulent gold body with a thick, lasting white head. Great retention and stringy lace.
S: Muted bread wood and herbs.
T: Tart fruity hops are joined by the wood and herbs. Not quite citrus, not quite cherry. Ends lightly bitter and tart.
M: Light and crisp with coating carbonation and kind of a wet finish.
O: Has more character than I expected. Worthwhile blonde for sure.

6.4
Appearance - 7 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 6 | Texture - 7 | Overall - 6.5

2 month old pint can
A: Slightly hazy pale gold with a short, lasting white head.
S: Heavy on grapefruit and pith, light on pineapple. Wheaty notes.
T: Follows the nose closely but more pineapple than grapefruit. Only light bitterness and malts still more wheaty than oaty. Tastes hazy.
M: Light and smooth textured with soft carbonation and clean finish.
O: Expensive with nothing to distinguish it from a hundred hazies. Disappointing.
