On tap at Westover Beer Garden. Poured into a plastic solo cup for outside consumption.

Cloudy piss, which was actually encouraging, but . . . Dilute orange juice
Flat but well carbonated
Not as good as Solace Hops Out Suns Out

Bright orange with a very fluffy pure-white head. I can’t say I got a lot of lacing, but I’m OK with that. Drank it so quickly I’m not sure there was adequate time for lacing to happen.

Pineapple aroma right off the bat. Mango slides in and it smooths out with a slight malt note. Warmth and swirling brings out a small hint of really dank, cheap weed. I mean that last part in a good way – it’s the same cheap weed you probably started out smoking and the nostalgia of it brings wonderful memories to my mind.

Pineapple quickly gives way to an oaty, slightly sweet malt note that is forcefully shoved aside by a fruity pebble note that washes over the tongue. Further sips give away the yeast as a mellow bubblegum note dances across the tongue, leaping from one spot to another. The notes don’t come together, they don’t meld into something greater, which slightly disappoints but also gives me the opportunity to appreciate each aspect in its own regard. Warmth brings more fruity notes to it – perhaps some peach, a little tangerine.

Light body, but it has a smooth viscosity to it that makes it seem more substantial. Nice carbonation, slight resin on the tongue.

Really nice beer. Based on the aroma, taste and mouthfeel, out of a black glass I would have thought it more like 6-6.5%, which is really impressive. Would happily put a few dozen of these in a cooler for a summer BBQ and just knock it back all day long – amazing session beer.

EDIT: As with most highly hopped session beers, this one does fall off rather quickly. As such, revised my Taste down to 4.5, smell to 4, and overall to 4 (from 4.75, 4.25, 4.25 respectively).

Thank you CanConPhilly for this
12 oz can, dated 2/22/18, poured into a teku

A- A hazy orange copper with a two finger white head.

S- Oranges, touch of caramel malts, some wet grass, some tropical fruits.

T- Citrus, oranges, touch of tropical fruits, some wet grass, touch of malts.

M- Smooth, light to medium body.

O- A decent session IPA, has some great qualities to it, but the wet grass is messing with it

Pixel Dust - Sixpoint
APA - 4.5% abv
Canned 2/22/18 (3 days ago)

L - 1/2 finger dense cloud of a head atop an enticing orange juice body. Head sticks around forever.

S - oh, Citra! Tons of citrus. Smells like juice.

T - orange and grapefruit. Lovely biscuity malt in the middle. Noticeable bitterness. Low sweetness, and zero booze in the taste.

F - surprisingly full body for the abv. Medium carb.

O - this might be the best sub-5% beer I’ve ever tried. My God Sixpoint! I like Lo Res a lot, but this is on a whole other level. Wish I had ordered more than 1 6-pack. I would drink this all summer if it came in cases.
