This beer pours a darker golden color with a minimal white head that goes away quickly. The aroma is a bittersweet orange lemon zest. Taste is similar to aroma with a medium body. All these beers start tasting alike. BOD 11-13-2024. Had this beer today

Poured into a Tree House glass a pretty nice cloudy pale yellow color, pretty nice carbonation, with a pretty nice thick/creamy one-finger plus off-white head, which also leaves some pretty nice sticky lacing behind. The nose is hoppy, malty, with a very nice citrus complex (orange, tangerine, grapefruit, pineapple, mango, peach, papaya, guava, nectarine, apricot, melon), very nice diesel like. The taste is very nice hoppy, malty, with a very nice citrus complex (orange, tangerine, grapefruit, pineapple, mango, peach, papaya, guava, nectarine, apricot, melon), very nice diesel like. Medium body, ABV hidden very nicely, with a nice little dry/bitter finish. Overall, this is a very tasty beer. Orange Julius! Addictive! MilkShake!

Another very good version of this series; pours out that familiar light gold with moderate have and a hefty cap of white head. The hops strike me as juicy and citrusy with a clean tropical presence and a smooth finish, the grain bill is very familiar with that pillowy presence of oat and wheat, very well-integrated.

another really nice beer in this series, grain loaded but simple in its overall presentation, modern and bright but substantial too, to me not really bitter, despite them saying its supposed to have a crap ton of bitterness, it really doesnt drink like that, and the dynaboost and cryo hop products yield something pungent but not harsh, i think a really nice beer overall, with a quick hoppy apex and a lot of drinkability. a little richer in color, light uniform haze, rust tinted, a creamed up inch of white head doesnt budge, looks lively and almost painted, sexy. the aroma and flavor are almost identical, a little more understated and balanced i think in the nose, a bit more earthy cereal character and herbal hop presence, the flavor is more pungent in the center, but the hops do the same thing, to me the 586, which i believe has been named krush now, is the most forward of the hops, perhaps just because its so distinctive and i like it so much, but it really pops here, right in the middle. notes of coconut, lemongrass, lemon balm, green melon, and white florals make it springy and interesting, and the grain is never far behind, i like all the oats and wheat, keeps it grounded and feeling sturdy without being heavy or sweet. simcoe adds white grapefruit fruitiness, el dorado a little sativa thing and some grassy and rind-like character, layers of pineapple candy, shredded coconut, and clover are also here, dynamic and delicious, but ramping up and peaking and then falling back pretty quick overall, like the climax of this is brief and it really recedes. this makes it thirst quenching for a hazy, but there is some neat hoppy oil on the palate too, a subtle fermentation aspect, and resplendent freshness that really pops. rushing carbonation is nice with the hearty grain, the quick hop hit in the middle is a neat flow for a beer in this style, and the mix of hop varietals is really cool. i look forward to new beers in this series quite a lot, almost 60 beers in and the stoke is still there, a testament to how educational and delicious so many of these have been!

16oz can from the Boise Co-op. Hazy golden pour, soft, foamy white head. Light fruity, hoppy aroma with a zesty edge. Taste blends juicy tropical and citrusy flavors, floral notes and mild zesty accents. Smooth, soft, gentle.
