On-tap at I&I
The pour is a hazy golden orange color with a fluffy white head. First could sniffs are much more heavy on the banana than anything else. There is a strong cantaloupe aroma too, though, especially as it warms. A mild spice note and a fair amount of sugar. The flavor does have a very nice melon flavor and actually does taste very much like cantaloupe. Plenty of banana, maybe some citrus peel, a few spice notes, and lots of sweetness in the form of sugar.

Draft to Pint
@I&I
App- Very vibrant golden color with some dark orange in the center and radiates out. A small 1/2 finger of head and then fell with some good cling.
Smell- Huge amounts of fruit on this one. The cantaloupe really shines on this. A bit of yeast and sugars come out. Very fresh and vibrant on the nose.
Taste- A very good fruit beer. Has great vibrant flavors and my only qualm is its a little one sided on the fruit. Missing a good backing note. The sugars and fruit do create a nice balance though.
Mouth- A nice light body with a nice light carbonation level. Good feel and fruit with the cantaloupe sugary residual flavors.
Drink- This is sneaky strong at 7.3% but I could drink this all day long. Very fruit forward but very good.
