A: Pours a murky medium bright golden apricot in color with moderate amounts of fine active visible carbonation rising along the edges of the glass and moderate bright yellow + orange + pale golden yellow colored highlights. The beer has a three finger tall dense sudsy foamy white head that reduces to a medium to large sized patch of thin film covering a little more than 55% of the surface of the beer and a thin ring at the edges of the glass. Light to moderate amounts of lacing are observed.
S: Moderate to strong aromas of juicy tropical/mango, tropical/passionfruit, citrus/grapefruit, and stone fruit/peach hops over the top of light to moderate aromas of biscuit + wheat + oat + honey + caramel malts with a light to moderate amount of honey + caramel sweetness.
T: Upfront there are just shy of moderate flavors of biscuit + wheat + oat + honey + caramel malts with a light to moderate amount of honey + caramel sweetness. That is followed by moderate to strong flavors of juicy tropical/mango, tropical/passionfruit, citrus/grapefruit, and stone fruit/peach hops which impart a hint of bitterness which fades away quickly leaving lingering tropical hop flavors.
M: Medium bodied with moderate amounts of carbonation. Slightly crisp initially with a light to moderate amount of soft/fluffiness and a hint of dryness in the finish.
O: Easy to drink with well hidden alcohol. Enjoyable with a nice sweet malt body and juicy tropical hops. I could easily have a couple of these.
