Poured from a 16oz can to a tulip glass. I would describe it as hazy copper orange with a small rocky head that leaves a firm lacing on the glass. Aroma is fruit forward, of grapefruit and orange. Taste is a fruit bomb of mango, grapefruit and orange juices that finishes a bit grassy without a noticeable hop bite. Mouthfeel is medium but watery. Easy to sip without much to think about. Cheers!

On tap this lunchtime at Brew Ridge Taps in Lexington VA.
Not particularly hazy, head retains well. Aroma is very fruity. On tasting, while pleasant enough, it's simply a tropical fruit bomb and a bit on the sweet side. No real hop bite to speak of.
Overall, certainly drinkable and refreshing. Abv well nigh invisible. Beer fruit juice

Pours cloudy pale yellow small head. Lot going on with the smell grapefruit and more. Taste light bitterness just right feel. Overall one the better hazy I had in a long time.

Hazy golden orange
Big head with lots of lacing
Citrus, mango, pineapple all good but then there's an aftertaste that's like...lavender that kind of ruins it for me
Mouthfeel adequate
Not horrible but I personally don't love the aftertaste
