A murky off-yellow/vanilla color on the pour with a strong head of white foam . Slight hops on the nose but not terribly floral. The drinking hits with soft and plush hops upfront. The smoothness of the flow is very evident from the start and it really seems to highlight the beer. Very clean and easy with virtually no bitter. A moderate mouthfeel that drinks tangy and juicy. The fruit notes are somewhat subtle and even a bit muddled at times. Still, decent notes of mango, orange, mixed berry, and peach.
Overall, this is pretty decent hop juice. I wish the fruit notes popped a bit more.

Canned 10/2/19, consumed 10/22 & 10/23/19
L: Solid hazy look right between orange & pineapple juice, small head with good retention and good amount of spotty lacing.
S: Creamy tropical fruit notes with some bright citrus peel.
T: Fruit flavors follow the aroma with dominant herbal/vegetal/grassy notes.
F: Smooth & creamy, med body with a good bit of bitterness.
O: Solid GN double hazy, probably middle-of-the-road for them. I haven't had a ton of GN beers, but the ones I've tried had a fuller feel. Still superior to most of the other available hazies here.

Rating to style, cuz that's what we do:
A perfectly smooth and opaque orange juice colored beer with a frothy, extra sticky off white head.
An indistinguishable smorgasbord of tropical fruits with a touch of vanilla, a spike of booze, and a little orange peel twist.
Flavor? See above.
Creamy smooth body, well balanced, with a light bitter finish and a touch of warmth. Dry finish makes it easy to sip on quickly.
Another great haze/juice bomb from GN. And Other Half. Kind of. Well... you know what I mean.
Cheers
