Canned 12/22/25

Appearance: Pours a completely cloudy (5% clarity) medium to pale orange/yellow color with a strong white head. SRM of 6-7. (4.00)

Aroma: Aromas of orange, orange juice, pineapple, with some tropical peach and fruit punch. (4.00)

Flavor: Flavors of orange, orange juice, with a tropical fruit punch and peach note underneath. Mild bitterness. (4.00)

Feel: Medium bodied, appropriate carbonation, finishes, sweet with orange juice lingering off the end. (3.75)

Compared to Mortalis Persephone 3/26: Pours similar. More OJ, sweet peach, fruit punch. Less pineapple, guava, citrus and pine zest. Sweeter.

Compared to Citra + Nectaron 3/26: Pours identical. Milder aromas. Less orange creamsicle, peach, berries. More pineapple and OJ. Smoother. Winner: Citra + Nectaron

Compared to Abomination Wandering Into the Fog - Galaxy 3/26: Pours similar. Less stonefruit, oats, pine. More OJ and pineapple. Zestier.

Overall: Other Half Citra and Galaxy, pretty straightforward. Lots of OJ here with some tropical peach and fruit punch flavors. A bit hot and sweet, but decent. Just not on par for Other Half's standard. (Rating: 3.98)

Served in a snifter glass from the can.

Appearance: Super hazy gold color coming off completely opaque with a thick white head that had an initial rise of maybe a nudge over one finger's length off the body.

Smell: Honey dew skin like aroma which dissipates quickly, gives the brew an aromatic fruity taste before the first sip.

Taste: Malty, semi sweet with hints of a pink grapefruit juice mixed with a pineapple like feel. It's still a bitter beer, but easy to intake.

Mouth: sticky with a soft carbonation. Full bodied.

Overall: The wife got this the other day for me at one of the local beer spots. What a grab, other half always producing gems. Salud!

Yowzer! I picked it up when I saw Citra and Galaxy on the label and it does not disappoint... Super citrus and hazy (not my favorite style) but the quality is evident
