Enjoyed at the brewery on a beerventure through Maine with JLindros. Reviewed from notes.
A - Poured into a standard pint glass a crystal clear gold with a thin head that fades to leave light wisps
S - Aromas of pineapple, oranges, citrus zest, tropical fruits, brightness
T - Taste is similar to the nose, bright tropical notes, light citrus, lightly sweet malts, grains. Nice but not as strong as nose.
M - Mouthfeel is brightly carbonated, crisp, clean.
O - Overall this beer was really aromatic, good tropical nose That just isn't as big on the taste .
Serving Type: On tap

Had on tap at the brewery.
Light foamy head, crystal clear pilsner color.
Nose awesome, bright fruit, citrus notes, nice tropical pineapple etc, little tangerine, fruity bubblegum, bright fruity hops, hint grassy spicy in the background.
Taste brings more tropical notes, not a strong as aroma, mild citrus, little dank pith, fruity in general, light bitterness, mild malty notes, mild grassy spicy hops in the background. Little passion fruit, papaya maybe, generic tropical. Finish dry, fair bitter note mostly grassy spicy.
Mouth is med bod, decent carb.
Overall pretty nice.
