16oz can, dated 06.09.2025, poured into a 16oz tumbler glass. Enjoyed on 06.18.2025, reviewed from Tasting Journal.

The beer pours a turbid and hazy orange color, hallmark orange juice appearance, fluffy white head, frothy and tall with good retention and lacing. The aroma is nice, very earthy and dank, green Nelson hop, juicy citrus, tropical fruits, floral with sweet dough and mineral water. The flavors are good, juicy citrus, tropical fruits, wildflower, stinky and dank hops, earthy and bitter, lots of grassy and spicy Nelson, soft dough and mineral water. The mouthfeel is good, chewy, coating, thick heavy medium body, creamy but dry finish.

Verdict: A nice pale ale, very pungent and dank. Very heavy for a pale ale, but bursting with hops.

7/6/25 - (DA’s Home) (Las Vegas, Nevada) Can Notes: Purchased refrigerated on June 26, 2025 at Khoury’s, and kept refrigerated until opening tonight. Paid $5.41 with tax for a single 16 oz canned 6/9/25 @ 10:04:08, can stamp All Around The Globe. Nelson Sauvin, Motueka & Nectaron T90 & Quantim-Hopped American Pale Ale. 5.75% ABV. Tasting Notes: Bright Pineapple, Cotton Candy Grapes, Lemon Lime Juice. Artwork by Dan Garza. Brewed and canned by Hop Butcher For The World in Chicago, Illinois and Bedford Park, Illinois.

Appearance: Center poured close to half the 16 oz can into a shaker pint glass, yielding an orange pineapple juice appearing base, generous creamy soapy lacing, head finally settles after a few minutes to yield a bubbly creamy cover over the base. 4.25

Aroma: Nice pineapple lead, backed by cotton candy, white grape, lemon and citrus. Sweet, but not overly, and strong. 4.25

Taste: Somewhat consistent with the above, pineapple lead, white grape and lemon. Nice. 4.0

Mouthfeel: Very heavy bitterness helps balance this one out with the sweet flavors. Drinks at the ABV, faintly dry. Pineapple the star of the show. 4.0

Overall: This is a beer I typically would pass over, but secured with my brother’s recommendation and was steered right. Heavy bitterness balances the flavors. I rarely suggest this, but if the bitterness was a little dialed back, this could find perfect balance. As is, a solid pour. 4.25
