Can poured into a Mountain Rambler Brewery pint glass

A: Pours hazy golden amber with a frothy pale tan head that settles to a light layer and leaves some spotty lacing.

S: Tropical and stone fruit mixed with classic Nelson white grape and gooseberry, juicy citrus, floral notes, biscuity malt, and caramel sweetness.

T: Juicy, tropical and stone fruit, peach, nectarine, mango, passion fruit, gooseberry, and a hint of papaya, citrus, orange and lemon lime, floral notes, subtle grassy herbal tones, biscuity malt, and caramel sweetness.

M: Medium body, moderate carbonation, chewy, a little alcohol and hop burn warmth can peek through towards the end of the pint.

O: It's not bad, but I had some high expectations for this one after how much I enjoyed the previous Double S & S variant. The Nelson is there, but doesn't really shine, and the balance overall feels a bit off, definitely on the sweeter side. I wouldn't turn down another glass, but if given the choice I'd probably choose something else.

Good not great hazy. Still has some chaulkiness to the mouthfeel that I personally find in most of their hazies. I should really stop buying their hazies, they're not worth their price point in my area.
