Just an off peanut butter flavor to this one. Not up to the usual BB standard. Below average finish.

Very tart with a heavy peach flavor. It’s got a kerosene level sting that makes it harsh to drink. This is really disappointing. Maybe the fruit used wasn’t fresh?

510ml bottle served in a large snifter. Don't see a date.
Pours extremely hazy, very pale white-orange, big fluffy head, lots of carbonation. Looks a bit like an orange julius. Smell is pineapple and juicy.
Taste is surprisingly mellow -- medium fruit juiciness, strong bitter finish.
Mouthfeel is medium and airy. Overall, very pleasant beer.

From bottle to pint glass
Nice yellow gold deep hazed body with great fluffy white head retention punctuated by larger sudsy bubbles.
Aroma has an interesting candied tart lemon zest character, peaches, and a very fresh/green hoppy smell.
Flavor follows the nose with a dominant peach pulp flavor, followed by a slightly acidic lemon zest drying character, and a noticeable hop bitterness that last for a while. Crisp Maris Otter Malt presence and sweetness is subdued.
Mouthfeel is medium pillowy, medium carbonation, and a noticeable drying/bitter hop resin character that grabs on the tongue.
Overall a decent hazy ipa. Maybe galaxy hops are better suited to a more complex malt bill rather than 100% maris otter. Maybe even a mixture of hops to accompany the peachy lemon flavors and aroma.

This is a new one for me. From the bottle.
Pours a hazy straw orange with a nice cap of coal. Light aroma, hiding until it warmed more. I get some peach and a hint of honeydew melon along with a freshly squeezed orange hop presence. Bitter but not harsh.

I had this beer on-tap in a nonic at the brewery.
Appearance: medium golden hue with plenty of haze and a thin layer of white foam.
Smell: kind of a tart citrus character; perhaps a little on the rough side but enticing enough.
Taste: bitey, bitter hops with an herbal quality and maybe a little lemon. Interesting; Galaxy may not work great as a NE IPA hop.
Mouthfeel: medium body with a good level of carbonation and creaminess for the style.
Overall: not a bad beer, but the hop variety may not be well-suited to the style.
