Yes it is! Hazed lemonade. Citrusy/lemony hop aroma and flavor with some stonefruit character and light dankness. Decent balance with little to no bitterness. Fairly light bodied with a thin juicy citrusy finish.

Poured from 16oz can into my BeerAdvocate teku. Canned 12/18/25.

Appearance: rather hazy, with a medium yellow-orange hue and a finger of frothy ivory foam atop.

Smell: an interesting mix of tropical passionfruit with hints of dankness and stone fruit. There’s a like a “slightly rotting fruit” aroma here — not in a bad way, per se, but there’s a certain pungency that is interesting. Maybe not my favorite aroma, but also I don’t hate it.

Taste: that pungency might have been like a supercharged apricot aroma that just kinda overwhelmed my nose buds. There’s a little bit of a plodding sweetness here, but the tropical and stone fruit combine with just enough zest to make this a bit juicy, and there’s a little hop burn as well. It’s actually starting to grow on me.

Mouthfeel: medium body with a good carbonation and creaminess.

Overall: I’m starting to like this one, though it is maybe a bit of an acquired taste. But not bad at all, and I’m sure it will find some real fans.
