Poured into a becher pint glass.
The appearance was a thick hazy orange juice color with a small white foamy head sliding off at a decent pace. Lotsa messy lace roaming all around the glass.
The aroma had a wonderful blend of sweet orange pulpy juice, grapefruit juice, pineapple and rind with a little bit of grassy to white pepper underneath.
The flavor seems to meld a full bittersweet blend of the prior mentioned aromas. Low lying grassy to white peppery spice ride the underneath. Mild aftertaste of orange juice, grapefruit juice and rind with white pepper.
The mouthfeel was about medium bodied with a fair sipping to sessionable sort of quality to it. There's a slight harshness with some back-of-the-mouth hop burn. Carbonation is nice and low as expected.
Overall, great aromas and flavors keep this beer close to the top of Finback's game.

L - 1.5 finger sparse white head recedes quickly into a cloudy yellow body.
S - grapefruit, melon, herb.
T - sweet tangerine, grapefruit, resin, melon, dank. Some mild hop burn going down. Smooth middle. Low bitterness. Moderate-low sweetness. Low booziness.
F - medium body and carb.
O - Lots of good qualities going on here. The hop burn was a surprise since this can is a month old, but it’s mild and rather pleasant.

Canned 8/15. Light golden yellow, full on opaque haze. Nice fluffy cloud-like head. Nose is delectable hop candy. Flavor is a full on citrus and pineapple bomb, feel is smooth as a baby’s bum, and it finishes fairly dry with a light touch of hop resins.
