Sweet tropical hoppy, orange citrus, and a lemony-orange citrus-dank nose on this one! Taste follows with a murky-soft, orange and lemony citrus bitter finish. Yum! This is so well done! Both the Citra and Motueka play so well together...very well-balanced between the two. No real sign of booziness on the backend...this is just outstanding!

Pours a turbid, golden orange body capped with two fingers of fluffy, white foam; solid head retention leaves a craggy half-finger of cap, moderate, frothy collar, and generous, buckshot spatter of taut, soapy lacing strewn across the walls of the glass.

Aromas of dank lime meander to grassy undertones and a grapefruit zest, initially citric yet contrasting the oncoming earthy melon and mango as zesty peach leaks with the bouquet.

Taste features creamy peach easing into a subtle, grassy dank as sweet resins take hold over the mid-palate; musty lime peel offers a quiet zing to pithy mango and juicy melon through the back end of the profile.

Mouthfeel brings a body on the fuller side of medium with a moderate, silky carbonation; a juicy overtone washes across an underlying grit as glossy resins ease past the mid-palate to a level hop twang on the back end, culminating in a bright finish.

Expansive dankness stretches across the glistening hop underscores of bright citrus and sweeter, saturated tropical fruits in a bid toward the restrained harmony of supreme drinkability in +10% haze; an approachable presentation of the heavier aspects of the entire hop spectrum.
