Poured into a Sierra Nevada can-shaped glass. Bottom of can says Canned On 08/08/25, but it's been kept cold.
A- Pours a moderately hazy orange glow with a full inch and a half of head that retains very well before dropping down to half its size. Head stays full all throughout the drink without ever disintegrating.
S- Has that signature NZ hop aroma that gives off big notes of Sauvignon Blanc-type tropical fruit. The nose on this is just singing and bursting with ripe fruit like mango, papaya and guava.
T- The flavor makes good on the aroma bringing with it all the same characteristics: melon, stone fruit, more mango, more papaya, more guava. Oh so dangerously drinkable as you would never guess it was 10.2%. Little to no bitterness.
M- Creamy with a touch of that powdery, almost chalky mouthfeel you get from hazies. Medium-light body and some sharpness from the hops.
O- This is officially my new favorite OH beer. Just a wonderful expression of Riwaka and a fine tribute to the NZ hop. Get it while it's still semi-fresh!

Cloudy, yellow color with a medium-sized, white head. Amazing aroma of citrus, sesame seeds, and tropical fruits. Soft, fruity, moderately sweet taste.

A little sweeter than it needs to be. Hides the ABV well but definitely is a tad bit too sweet. Needs more dank and less sweetness. Solid and better than average for sure, but short of truly outstanding.

Poured from can. Little foam, hazy pour. Smooth taste. Easy to drink and overall a very good hazy IPA.
