It's a clean hazy, great introduction beer as it has a low IBU and the feel is nice and smooth

Another solid northwest hazy pale ale from a Portland brewery, as I was sure it would be. This is a nice representation of that local style. Nothing too fancy, just a nicely made beer that goes down easy. It's cloudy, no doubt, but that goes great with the weather there on many occasions.

 

Look: Hazy light orange – really thick looking on the pour, with a big-time head that erupts and holds before settling, leaving great lacing behind
Aroma: Overripe peach, cantaloupe, melon, mango, passionfruit, sugar-dusted strawberries, wafts of pineapple, and some orange
Taste: Holy hell, this is a tropical fruit salad full of ridiculously ripe fruit – a literal punch. Huge melon, peach, mango, papaya, pineapple – follows the nose but way more intense. Malt is non-existent except for in the feel of the beer and closes as it began, with fruit
Mouthfeel: Full, but not chewy or tongue coating, medium to medium-high carbonation, and silky or really velvety on the finish AKA soft
Overall: I can dig it. Once again, I’m not a hazy fan but love these folks and my dad hooked me up with this for the new and unique hop profile. Straight up overripe tropical fruit salad bomb all around but without being too chalky or having discernable hop burn. This may be the ‘fruitiest’ beer I’ve had this year and glad to have tried it, though easily a one-and-done for me as it lacks the bite or dryness that I enjoy and that beckons further imbibing

This is excellent. A lot of passion fruit, citrus and juiciness in addition to haziness. Really like this beer. Very crisp

Really cloudy yellowish brew-- almost opaque. Warning-- don't pour in small doses-- carefully fill your glass and leave a good slug in the can or you'll get the real muck from the bottom. Flavor is actually rather appealing, with passionfruit and peach leading the charge but loosing to the acidity so who cares.

Aroma too is pleasant, just a light whiff of fruit. Harsh finish with bitter aftertaste. Overall this is the usual murky stuff. Not one of the better hazy beers. From the 12 oz can purchased at Elizabeth Station.
