Canned 5/5/21
Looks like a hazy IPA, opaque orange, thankfully not brown. A halo of drippy lace around the edges. Aroma is fresh and citrusy tangerine at first, then some sweet mango and jackfruit, and then caramel malt starts to creep in.
Taste is fruity, citrus and vaguely tropical, poorly defined and astringent, pretty caramelly at this point. 3 months is too long I guess. Medium bodied and smooth, just a little faded at this point.

I got a can of this beer off the single shelf from my local beer store just around the corner. It poured a hazy golden with very thin white ring head that is not leaving much lace. The scent had bold tangerine peel spice. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with tangerine and tropical fruit peel spice. The mouthfeel was medium in body and had good carbonation. Overall it is a solid beer.

Pours a hazy honey color with plenty of carbonation & a pinky of eggshell colored head
S: Some tropical fruit and peach once warm. Better than average lacing & average head retention
T: Green melon, bready dryness, pomelo & peach, plus some white grape up front. More green melon, peach & pomelo as this warms, along with some powdery dryness. Finishes citrus acidity, dryness, green melon & peaches
MF:: Medium body, subtle carbonation, good balance, a little acidity as this warm from the citrus that works for me
Nose is a letdown, but nice flavor

Pours an impenetrable yellow-orange. Loads of tropical fruits (think jackfruit, passionfruit, tangerine) in the aroma. More tropical fruits with plenty of zest/rind as well as notes of herb and fresh-peeled grapefruit in the finish. Medium yet crisp and the abv is barely noticeable.
If this brew had more ratings it might make some big waves. But it's ok by me that it doesn't, because that just means more for us locals.
