A: Pours a milky murky medium golden yellow in color with moderate amounts of fine active visible carbonation rising along the edges of the glass and moderate bright yellow + pale orange + peach + apricot colored highlights. The beer has a thee finger tall dense sudsy foamy off-white head that slowly reduces to a large patch of medium thick film covering a little more than 70% of the surface of the beer surrounded by a large patch of slightly mottled very thin film covering the remainder of the surface of the beer and a medium thick ring at the edges of the glass. Slightly heavier than moderate amounts of lacing are observed.
S: Moderate to strong aromas of juicy tropical/papaya + tropical/mango + citrus/orange + stone fruit/apricot + pine/resin hops over the top of light to moderate aromas of biscuit + pale + oat malts with a light amount of sugary sweetness.
T: Upfront there are light to moderate flavors of biscuit + pale + oat malts with a light amount of sugary sweetness. That is followed by moderate to strong flavors of juicy tropical/papaya + tropical/mango + citrus/orange + stone fruit/apricot + pine/resin hops which impart a light to moderate amount of bitterness which fades away almost instantly leaving moderate lingering tropical + citrus hop flavors.
M: Light to medium bodied with moderate amounts of carbonation. Slightly crisp initially with a light to moderate amounts of soft/fluffiness mid-body and a light amount of dryness in the finish.
O: Easy to drink with well hidden alcohol and a pleasantly soft/fluffy mouthfeel. Enjoyable with really nice pungent tropical + citrus hop flavors and aromas. I could easily have a couple of these.
