Look (4.5): One finger head, bit of hop haze at top once head settles. Beautiful opaque dark orange. Looks inviting!
Nose (4.75): Very sweet and juicy nose. Has distinct uniqueness to it... what is that sweetness I'm picking up? Almost like a strawberry-kiwi thing. It's description says "aromas of fruity pebbles, cantaloupe, and watermelon." Maybe that's what I'm detecting - like a watermelon jolly rancher or fruity pebbles. Almost a slight lactose/milkshake type of scent. Very interesting. No signs of bitterness. As it opens up, dankness and boozieness become much more apparent.
Taste(4.5): Yum! That initial hit to the tongue is surprisingly similar to the nose. Accompanied, however, with some dankish hops to balance it out. At 10%, alcohol is noticeable, but not over powering. Not quite a crusher, but definitely not a real sipper. The sweetness does come out as a bit sharp rather than gentle, but it gives the flavor a nice pop to it. Can also taste an underlying wheatiness/biscuit-like quality underneath it all.
Feel (4.75) Very impressive here as well. Incredibly smooth. Helps round out some of the sharpness in flavor. Creamy, buttery, all the good adjectives. Low to mild carbonation that is mostly detected on the back end.
Overall (4.5): Very pleased with this beer. Has enough uniqueness and character to be memorable without overdoing it in any direction or loosing balance. Very close to a 4.75. Only thing not pushing it there is the bit of sharpness as and taste not being *quite* at next level. Very good, and would easily drink again.

Fruity, manooey, pinapple juice. 10% with no hop nor alcohol burn. Have no idea how they keep doing it. Rivals unicorn in my opinion.
