A nice symmetry of fruits here. Might be too tart for some, but I had this after having a Blazed Orange so my taste buds were primed. Aroma is vanilla and orange. Color is a dull reddish/brown (burnt maybe). Taste is a combo of orange, cream, raspberry. A beautiful synergy here. Well done.

Murky pink lemonade body with a dark white head. Smell has good hop bitters with tart raspberry, mango juice and vanilla, don't really get the blood orange, not stark definition though. Taste starts very bitter with the hops, then slides into sweet mango, the before missing blood orange, some peach, and then finished with tart raspberry juice and very sweet vanilla, again muddled but not as much as the nose. Feels medicinal within the creaminess, tart and sugary on the finish, which honestly what gets me: it has the hoppy ending at the beginning and the ending is what should be the accent, and then it lingers on the palate forever, one of the longest lasting beers in a long time. General impression is not enough definition of aromas, flavors and textures, but still ok

Canned 6/16/20; drank 6/19/20 @ the Yarchives.

Opaque orange/red appearance.

A rough pour yielded a small, noisy white head; frothy lace.

Vanilla, raspberry & faint mango notes in the nose.

Creamy, medium mouthfeel.

Tangy blood orange, vanilla & tart raspberry flavors up front; mild dry grass notes on the finish.

The nose played up the sweeter aspects of this beer, while the taste focused on the dry aspects; balanced (especially for the style) and tasty. I'd have another!
