This beer is pretty good. Nice taste. A little fruity with some floral notes in there. No bitterness at all. Kind of reminds me of a Tree House. Thumbs up! Does not disappoint.

Hazy copper with tons of fast rising carbonation and topped with 3 fingers of beige tinged white head.

Smells of big, fresh orange juice, caramel, tropical fruit notes of pineapple and mango, and a hint of toasted sugar.

First its sweet, then a big haphazard bitter, mixed with notes of fresh orange juice, and tropical fruit notes. Unfortunately, the semi-char, semi-grapefruit pith bitterness can't make up its mind, and fights with the sweetness, leaving the nice hoppy notes in the background, only to be detected at will.

The flavour qualities unfortunately combat it enough that sticky, highly carbonated notes can't be fully appreciated.

Got this brew at a liquor store in Agawam, MA, drinking in Sturbridge, Massachusetts, January 1st, 2018. Perhaps my first CT brew, unfortunately with some flaws.

Pours kind of murky orange. Some white floaties in there. Sudsy head. Nose is like caramel funk. Spoiled apples. Hmm. Taste is dirty spoiled dishwater. Absolute rubbish. Astringent. No juice. Maybe the dirt from the jungle floor is in here. Ugh barf Osama. One of the worst beers I've had that I can remember. Avoid at all costs.. drain pour. I'll drink my sweaty sock juice instead.

Not sure what this is supposed to be. Labeled as an American ale. The name implies some level of juiciness. Smells like dish detergent. Very muddled flavors. Odd caramel aftertaste. It's like they canned it before it was ready, or something. I don't know.

This beer definitely does not live up to its name. I was expecting a hoppy fruity beer. It is far from that. Poured from a 16 oz can. Just an all around bad beer. This brewery should be ashamed for releasing this. Thumbs down all around
