Can pour - crystal clear pale gold straw color, white head, minimal lacing. Nose is earthy and dank. Taste follows with hints of citrus and grass. A bit of mild citrus lingers on the finish.

Nice looking beer. Golden in hue. Bountiful white head. Solid retention. Clumpy lacing.
Aromas sing with both tropical and weedy notes. But then it’s earthy and spicy too. Vibes of weed, berries, lemongrass, pineapple, lemon zest. A bit biscuity too.
Flavor follows the nose. This baby goes all over the yard. But it the prominence of the berry, tropical, and gentle weed rides highest.
Active carb. Smooth and dry on the bitter finish.

On tap at Chico Taproom 4-27-23

Smells really good with big dank citrus and tropical fruit notes and a hint of sweet flowery perfume underneath.

On the palate it's not as tropical as the nose. It lands more on the citrus rind side of things with that "sweaty" kind of dankness on top of a biscuity pale malt that brings a honey sweetness. Lingering bitterness on the back half with a little earthy spiciness on the way out. Carbonation is prickly on the tongue and finishes pretty dry. Not bad by any means but the nose had me wishing for more to be honest.

A walk on the dank side. Clear golden yellow brew with plenty of white foam in the Tripel Karmeliet tulip. Nose of melon and lemon. Lushly hopped and frothy on the tongue with a malty body and crisp mouthfeel. A touch of sweetness like candied lemon peel, but less bitter than a lot of IPAs. Interesting flavors with fruit and citrus and the green melon finish. This is a very drinkable brew with more complexity, but distinctly about the hops. From the 16 oz can purchased at Bine & vine. Dated 12/30/22.

Copper in color with thin head. Nice lacing, but ever-so slight. Nose is kind of bready with a tinge of peppery smell to it. Taste is piney as a West Coast should be. Only slight I can give it is not enough bitterness on the backend.
