Pours an effervescent amber with some hazing. Stellar lacing & pretty good head retention
S: Oranges, mango, some cattyness once warmed up
T: Follows the nose, some pomelo & breadyness up front, a little cattyness too. Much juicyness as this warms, some leafy hops as well. Finishes a little dry with cattyness & juicyness
MF: Medium body, fairly firm carbonation & great balance
Drinks very easy, another hoppy beauty from Roughtail

A: Good hazy orangish yellow body. Not much head but lacing stuck around while drinking the beer.
S: Big fruit bomb. Heavy smell of oranges and grapefruits. Smells of a very hoppy beer.
T: More fruit flavors coming out here. Sweet grapefruit and oranges for taste.
M: Super easy drinker. Soft mouthfeel. Getting a small amount of alcohol burn but this one could be drank QUICK.
O: Probably the best of the Adaptation series I have had so far. This stands up well to anything Roughtail has done in the past.

Pours a very cloudy/hazy almost opaque yellow golden color with white head. Pineapple, mango, other light fruits, and just a hint of citrus on the palate. Medium bodied, but soft on the palate. Finishes with more juicy light fruit flavors.
