L- Pale yellow verging on the color of greatfruit juice........2 finger head that settles to a healthy cap.....hazy, juicy, ....lacing is moderate

S-Aroma is faint......picking up some passionfruit, greatfruit, mango

T-Delicious.......honey is very noticeable and puts this beer over the top.....flavors are passionfruit, greatfruit, pineapple, mango, some lemon/ lime.....flavors are wrapped in the sugary sweetness of the honey that accentuates the fruity hop flavors

F- slightly less than medium.....soft, pillowy, has a bit of carb, prickly bite that compliments the other elements of the beer

O- This may be a TE favorite.....the honey really compliments and accentuates all the other flavors.....should have bought more the a 4 pack

Canned on 6/30/2020 and reviewed 5 days later. I think this is a different recipe than when first released in 2019. Also, the ABV is slightly higher. Poured into a pint glass. It pours an opaque, pastel lemon-brown with a half finger of foamy, bright white head and lacing. A rather subdued smell with mostly lemon, grapefruit, and a whiff of wheat cracker. The taste opens with tangy lemon but as it warms and settles a bit you can taste the wheat cracker and increasing sweetness from the malted and flaked oats and the wildflower honey, a hint of cannabis from the Strata hops, and a touch of minty cream from the Sabro. Don't drink this too quickly - there's more to it than at first blush. It finishes with a bit of peppery astringency. The mouth feel is crisp and lite with moderate carbonation. At 5.8% ABV it's very easy to drink. Overall, Twin Elephant has really tinkered with the recipe for this ABA to good effect. Overall, it's a fine summertime beer.

A: murky hazy burnt yellow and matte pale orange. 1/2 finger fizzy white head

S: mango, pineapple, sweet grapefruit, grass, strawberry, passionfruit, and apricot. Some earthy herbal notes and crackery grains. Finish is sharp pineapple and orange

T: orange zest, pineapple, and some raw Citra hop pellets. Tea leaf, creamsicle, and an earthy strawberry. Biscuity bready backbone with a bit of a tinge from hop burn. A touch of chalk as well

M: medium fluffy mouthfeel with some hop burn and lowish carbonation

O; an ok APA. Had this on tap and it’s a bit raw. Has a nice mix of fruit and earthiness to it, but could settle a bit more
