A: Pours a murky milky medium golden honey in color with moderate amounts of fine active visible carbonation rising along the edges of the glass and moderate bright yellow + medium golden yellow + orange + burnt orange colored highlights. The beer has a three finger tall dense sudsy foamy off-white head that slowly reduces to a large patch of medium thick film covering a little more than 75% of the surface of the beer surrounded by a large patch of very thin film covering the remainder of the surface of the beer and a thin ring at the edges of the glass. Significant amounts of lacing are observed.

S: Moderate to strong aromas of juicy citrus/grapefruit, tropical/mango, tropical/papaya, gooseberry, and stone fruit/peach hops over the top of moderate aromas of biscuit + oat + wheat + honey malts with moderate amounts of honey sweetness.

T: Upfront there are moderate flavors of biscuit + oat + wheat + honey malts with moderate amounts of honey sweetness. That is followed by moderate to strong flavors of juicy citrus/grapefruit, tropical/mango, tropical/papaya, gooseberry, and stone fruit/peach hops which impart a hint of bitterness which fades away instantly leaving lingering moderate flavors of tropical + citrus hops.

M: Medium bodied with moderate amounts of carbonation. Slightly heavier than moderate amounts of soft/fluffiness mid-body and a light to moderate amounts of dryness in the finish.

O: Easy to drink with extremely well hidden alcohol and a very pleasantly soft/fluffy mouthfeel. Enjoyable with a really successful combination of hop aromas and flavors. I could easily have a couple of these though they would definitely sneak up on you.
