I'm trying this beer off the tapper at Cugino's as part of a four sample flight. It poured a hazy golden with white head that is leaving some lace. The scent had tropical fruit notes. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with semi sweet malt base with tropical fruit and a spice blend. The mouthfeel was lighter in body with good carbonation. Overall its a solid beer.

16oz can. Poured out a cloudy, golden orange color with a good-sized, off-white head of foam. It left sticky rings of lace on the glass. It smelled of orange, tart grapefruit, guava and mango. Sweet fruity tropical notes with toasted caramel and a sharp, piney bitterness.

16oz undated can poured into a Spiegelau IPA glass at fridge temp 8.1% ABV. The beer pours turbid, but not murky, in a pastel yellow orange tinted color. The head is off white and recedes to a film and fat ring. The aroma is a fruit salad of grapefruit, peach and melon. The taste is juicy, as advertised. Semisweet grapefruit and melon come to mind again with an slight finishing bitterness to cut the sugar. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with adequate carbonation and a bit of a prickly feel. The finish is undry, but not cloying. Overall, very good. Literally tastes like a juice cocktail with just enough bitterness to keep me on board. Thanks for this one @Harrison8.

Poured from 16oz can into glass. No canning date information found.
Cloudy, pale gold colored body. Slight, creamy white colored head, which clings to the glass during each sip.
Aroma is dank and floral hops, and has a faint but definite odor of grapefruit, and a touch of pine.
Taste is juicy, and full of grapefruit and pineapple. Also lots of dank and earthy flavors. Slight onion. Has a bite of bitterness at the end.
Fuller, sticky mouth feel. Very good carbonation. Soft texture.
A higher ABV% IPA with no extreme bitterness (expresses more bitterness as the beer warms) and not too much sweetness. Full of juicy and dank flavors, and soft in the mouth. This could be in the NEIPA beer style category.
