Poured to na Ora et Labora taster.

A: Body is orange with some relatively high opaqueness. Head is white, lives only to the sides of the glass but with medium retention.
S: Aroma is very resinous with a big hunch of citric and tropical aromas. First there's the said resinous, then a bit of mango, blood orange, and moving on to orange peel. Interesting.
T: Taste starts off with a fascinantingly sweet touch of citrus combined with some milky touch, like if it could have had lactose. It then moves to the resinous touch and ends with a mild bitterness that is pleasant.
M: Body is medium to high. Carbonation is good. Bitterness is high. Alcohol is strange unnoticed.
O: This is a good one. Would love to have this on tap.

Pours a hazy orange with fine, soft foam.

Smell is sweet with apricots and some earthy grass. There is a slight medicinal hint that puts it off a little.

Taste is sweet and boozy to start. Apricots, grass and some pine leads in to a dry, long finish. As it warms, the booze hides more and more.


Mouthfeel is medium to full, well carbonated.

Overall, a very nice triple IPA that got better as it warmed.

 

 

 

Hazy peach color with off-white head. Aroma has grass, grape must and fermented fruits. Taste has a sweet malt background and fermented fruit notes with a medium bitterness on the finish. Medium to full bodied. Well hidden ABV but it's a bit astringent.

 

Poured a cloudy, yellow-orange body with decent head and lace ring. Aroma has some mild bitterness but mostly a tropical fruit and orange/acidic aroma. Smooth, medium to heavy body with a yeast-like smoothness to it (not saying there's yeast in it). Beer is more sweet than anything with a tropical fruit like sweetness but then is balanced with a mild, crisp finish.

 

 

 

Pours a cloudy orange color with a thin ring of white lacing that left little lacing. Smells of strong citrus and tropical fruits with a mild floral presence. Tastes of orange, grapefruit, mango, orange pith, resin and pine, Medium to full bodied, creamy mouth feel, light carbonation, moderate bitterness and dryness on the finish.

 

 

 

16oz can poured into a tulip

A- pours a hazy golden orange color with a one-finger foamy white head that reduces to a ring around the glass

S- citrus-forward hop aroma with notes of tangerine and grapefruit zest, mango, white grape, peach gummy rings & some light floral notes to close it out

T- juicy citrus bomb up front with notes of fresh squeezed orange and grapefruit juice, mango & guava juice. Mid-palate gives some resinous notes, as well as pithy citrus and zest. White grape and grass closes it out with a bitter finish and linger of more juicy citrus

M- medium body with moderate carbonation, murky mouthfeel and a foamy, semi-dry finish

O- higher abv seems to bring out the juicy notes on this one, tons of citrus and tropical hops
