Headed over the Windmill Farms to see what new stuff they had. Grabbed this along with a host of others. Their website called it “We could all use a bit of a vacation these days, if only for the time it takes to drink this beer.

Poured a medium gold-to-light amber hazy color with two fingers of fizzy off-white head. Could see just a few bubbles coming up along the sides of the glass. Outstanding spotty lacing. Decent retention. (Sight - 3.75)
Really liked the smell right away. Got that POG right way, in order passion fruit, guava and orange, and also pineapple, peach skin and light sugary vanilla. Not quite as good from the can. (Smell - 4.25)
Tasted even better than the nose. Wow. I’m a sucker for POG beers, but this was great. Got passion fruit, guava, orange, pineapple, peach and milk sugar. (Taste - 4.50)
Medium body. Creamy-to-sticky texture. Average carbonation. Long, sugary, tart finish. (Feel - 4.50)
Damn. This was tremendous. Glad I picked up a can. (Overall - 4.25)
