The beer is a bright golden tan. It’s fairly cloudy. The head is white and leaves a moderate amount of lacing on the glass. The aroma is tropical fruit and tangerine hoppiness. Big on pineapple, orange, papaya. Very mild crackery malt note. Mild bitterness. A bit spicier in the taste. More orange juice, rather than tropical sweetness. Easy to drink. Nice and light. Dry finish. Normal carbonation. Good stuff.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

On tap at Highland Park Brewery in Los Angeles, CA.

Pours a murky honey orange with a foamy beige head that settles to a partial film on top of the beer. Small streaks of lace form around the glass on the drink down. Smell is of citrus fruit, citrus zest, tropical fruit, and earth aromas. Taste is much the same with citrus zest, tropical fruit, and earth flavors on the finish. There is a mild amount of hop bitterness on the palate with each sip. This beer has a lower level of carbonation with a slightly crisp and medium bodied mouthfeel. Overall, this is a pretty good beer with a nice mix of citrus and tropical hop characteristics.

Serving type: on tap.
