I am trying a can of this beer at my bestie's house in Charlotte, NC. It poured a hazy golden with big fizzy white head that is leaving a spotty lace. The scent had overprimed fresh hop notes. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with bright malt base with tangerine and blood orange citrus presence. The mouthfeel was lighter in body with good carbonation. Overall it is a good beer.

 

 

 

 

Partially cloudy, peach yellow body; dense and lively carbonation; thick, rocky head, sticky and white; patchy rings and patches of foam stick to the glass. Fine citrus and tropical fruit aroma; orange and pineapple. Light tropical fruit taste with a dusting of powdered sugar; light cereal grain base, biscuit-like; mild hop bitterness. Medium-light body; crisp with a mild citrus tanginess.

This beer exudes a rather unique quality overall. It uses some classic adjuncts used in American adjunct lagers, some more modern hop varieties, plus lime. And it all comes together nicely. It delivers a unique balance and complexity to the palate, drinks easily, and comes across pleasantly and very satisfying. It is a lovely little beer.

A: The beer is very hazy pale yellow in color. It poured with a short white head that left a thin patch of bubbles on the surface, a narrow collar around the edge, and lots of lacing down the sides of the glass.
S: Moderate aromas of lime are present in the nose along with notes of coconut.
T: The taste has flavors of lime along with notes of coconut, cream and lemon. No bitterness is perceptible.
M: It feels light- to medium-bodied and a bit juicy on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This beer is packed with lots of citrusy aromas and flavors - particularly those of lime - but the coconut accents from the Sabro hops help to lend some complexity to the smell and taste.

Serving type: can

A: Pours a hazy pale to medium golden yellow in color with moderate amounts of fine active visible carbonation rising along the edges of the glass and moderate bright yellow + pale orange + apricot colored highlights. The beer has a three finger tall dense creamy sudsy foamy bright white head that slowly reduces to a large patch of medium thick film covering a little more than 75% of the surface of the beer surrounded by a large patch of thin film covering the remainder of the surface of the beer and a medium thick ring at the edges of the glass. Slightly heavier than moderate amounts of lacing are observed.

S: Moderate to strong aromas of juicy citrus/lime + citrus/tangerine + stone fruit/nectarine + floral + herbal hops over the top of moderate aromas of biscuit + bready + pale + oat malts with a light to moderate amount of corn adjunct + sugary sweetness.

T: Upfront there are light to moderate flavors of biscuit + bready + pale + oat malts with a light to moderate amount of corn adjunct + sugary sweetness. That is followed by strong flavors of fresh lime. Finally there are moderate to strong flavors of juicy citrus/lime zest + citrus/tangerine + stone fruit/nectarine + floral + herbal hops which impart a light amount of bitterness which fades away fairly quickly leaving moderate lingering lime + lime zest flavors.

M: Light to medium bodied with moderate amounts of carbonation. Slightly crisp initially with a moderate amount of creamy soft/fluffiness mid-body and a light amount of dryness in the finish.

O: Easy to drink with well hidden alcohol and a pleasant mouthfeel that is both crisp and creamy soft/fluffy. Enjoyable with a nice hop presence and lots of fresh lime.
