Appearance - Pours hazy and orange in color with an off-white, finger width head. Fair retention results in a thin, broken layer of suds, thickening up slightly as it reaches the edges. Decent amount of lacing, with broken webbing, lines and small spotting clinging to the glass here or there.

Smell - Smells fruity, but nuanced. Hints of citrus, stonefruit, tropical character and some definite yeastiness.

Taste - Juicy, but somewhat mellow flavor profile. Hints of orange, guava and a faint trace of pineapple. Apricot? Maybe even a hint of melon and berry. Finishes with mellowed fruitiness and a slight acidic bite.

Mouthfeel - Medium-bodied with fair carbonation. Slick, smooth drinker with a slightly dry finish.

Overall - Really good and easy as hell for an 8% brew, but the flavor profile lacks a strong lead characteristic. It's an assortment of fruit flavors, no doubt, but hard to pick up on much of any of it.
