Poured into a 13 oz tulip glass canned 9/17/19. Pours a slightly cloudy with a finger sticky white head that leaves plenty of waves of lace. 4.25

Smell is melon, peach, vanilla, sherbet, and some apricot. 4

Taste follows sherbet, melon, peach, apricot, and vanilla. 4

Mouthfeel is a solid medium, gentle carbonation, really not sticky or dry, and at 8.2% drinks easier on feel and flavor. 4

Overall very nice beer, not as hazy and big on feel as most in this newish style, but still a nice beer. 4

Can stamped underneath reads "09/17/19.
This was poured into a tulip.
The appearance was a ruddy burnt orange bronzed copper color with a quickly dissipating foamy head, white in color and left some messy wispy semi-sticky lace.
The aroma had some orange pulpy sweetness reminiscent of puree' but coming across somewhat like a sugary substance. Some grassy hops pulling at the fruity character along with some biscuity malts.
The flavor leaned towards the sweet end pushing any hoppy bitterness further back. Semi-sweet aftertaste of orange pulpy sweetness and biscuit malts, somewhat long in this aspect.
The mouthfeel was about medium bodied with a decent sipping quality about it. Some stickiness trolls the body, mainly acceptable but give it a month and I bet this will be cloying. Carbonation felt fine, as if a "wannabe" New England styled one but creates a longer sticky sort of finish with some grassy hop harshness.
Overall, maybe I need to seek this one fresher, as I'm not exactly sure what happened here.

Extremely low carbonated thick offering from a usually phenomenal brewery. Poured an almost brown color and got just a bit of fruit from the pour. As it currently sits, in a glass i am get very little in the way of fruitiness. Not that good to the point where i am hoping something happened to the can. I have one left, and will update if this was just a bad can.
