Canned 1/6/21; drank 2/19/21
Look: Pours a bright orange haze with a nice head on it. Lacing isn't good, but not spectacular.
Smell/Taste: Lots of vanilla, stone fruit, juiciness. It's a bit on the sweet side compared to many wild ales, but still quite well balanced.
Feel: Average mouthfeel. A bit more carbonation than I would have wanted, finishes strong and smooth.
Overall: Overall, I really enjoyed this one and would definitely have again.

Canned 01/06/21
Appearance - Pours hazy and yellowish-orange in color with a white, finger width head that displays fair retention before dying down to a thin, broken layer across the surface. No lacing.
Smell - Prominent peachy aroma. Subtle sugary sweetness. Vague hops sitting far, far beneath.
Taste - Follows the nose. A bit of candy-like peachy character from start to finish. Hints of vanilla and cream begin to emerge as the brew warms, especially as it approaches the finish. There's a vague trace of hoppiness in there, but hard to pinpoint the flavor it imparts. Maybe a trace of dankness?
Mouthfeel - Medium-bodied with fair carbonation. Slick, easy drinker all the way through the finish.
Overall - Strange beer. Not quite a milk shake IPA. Definitely tart. It's like a mellowed peach Jolly Rancher at colder temps, then once the vanilla and cream come into play it becomes something a bit different. I do dig it though.
