Canned 9/27, the nose is citrusy with tangerine, orange peel, orange juice, melon, lemon, and then biscuit, floral notes and fruity candy like Razzles. Flavor has everything in the nose but it’s more pungent and also includes light caramel, graham cracker, mild peppery spices, some wet wheat bread, tea leaf, honey and apricot. The orange taste to me gets stronger with every sip (in a good way) as does the malty aspects and this completely hides the ABV and goes down much easier than it should. Another solid brew from Interboro, I’d definitely have it again.

 

 

 

Canned 9/27. Medium hazy orange color, moderate head but it dissipated quickly leaving a nice ring around the edge but no lacing. Smell was very citrus forward with some floral accents. Have to say the 10% is very well-hidden as this is a very easy-drinker, juicy and soft.

 

 

 

 

Looks like orange juice - opaque golden-orange body, with a frothy "orange julius" head... Aromas of zesty orange, bright tangerine, and indistinct tropical fruits come across on the nose... Tastes much like it looks and smells... With some beers, I find too much orange a bit off-putting, but something about this one really hit the spot with me... I want to say that the "orange" was lighter and brighter, but truth be told, there is a danker undercurrent here... Perhaps the feel plays a role, as this is a super plush smoothie of a beer, medium-weight and soft but with some tingle... Double dry-hopped, it features Citra, Motueka, and Galaxy hops - perhaps its the freshness of the Motueka or the lightness of the Galaxy hops? Malts run the light side, too, with Pilsener, Vienna, and wheat - no doubt that combination could be a factor... Cannot believe this is a 10% abv beer - drinks like one o' those 7.9% Other Half IIPAs... A real winner for me... 4/24/18 canning...

 

 

 

 

Pours hazy amber with one finger white head. Nice lacing. Aroma of orange peel, lemon and mango. Taste follows the nose with mango and a nice sweetness at the end. Nice dipa
