Smell a little pineapple and melon. Creamy on the initial feel. More pineapple on the taste. Hop on the back but finishes juicy.

Pours a hazy, darker orange with small amounts of carbonation. A thin, creamy, white head.
Smells clearly of citrus hop.
Not overly hippy with a big malty backing. A little bit of darkness. Melon rind, slight garlic and spice.
Smooth mouthfeel, a little thin.
Great balance on this one.

Canned 4/3/18
A-very hazy orangeish yellow with two fingers worth of foamy head
S-lots of citrus and malt
T-tastes of grapefruit citrus and a light pine finish
M-medium body and somewhat light carbonation
Overall very good collaboration between Hailstorm and Transient Ales, though I wish there was a bit more carbonation

Had on tap. Poured like foamy orange juice. Aromas of orange, other citrus, and hops. Taste was pleasant and light, the front of orange, grapefruit and other citrus flavors followed by a wave of hops. Mouth feel was a little thin but hop backbone helped with this. Overall a very pleasant hazy dipa for a nice cool summer day
