Had it at Fabled Brew Works on the guest tap.
The name really describes the beer well. The mouthfeel is quite pillowy and the hop delivery is mellow.

Canned 4/14/20; drank 4/18/20 @ the Yarchives.
Opaque orange appearance.
A rough pour yielded a huge white head; a thick curtain of tree-rung lace.
Peach, bubblegum & dry grass notes in the nose.
Medium mouthfeel.
Peach & bubblegum flavors up front; dry grass bite on the finish.
Above average, but not amazing. Worth a quaff.

I tried this beer at the brewery. It poured a hazy milky white with white head that is leaving a spotty lace. The scent had hints citrus. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with pleasant citrus presence. The mouthfeel was lighter in body with good carbonation. Overall its a solid beer.

Tasted in a Craft Master glass from draft at Maplewood Brewery & Distillery on March 16, 2019. A juicy double IPA double dry hopped with Galaxy and Mosaic. Highly recommended.
