Pours a murky orange that has hints of brown. Head is a finger and a half in height, but falls quickly. Aroma is tangerine, papaya, guava, and orange zest. Hints of biscuity, bready, wheaty malts add a little extra substance to the aroma, but overall it's short and staccato, pouncing on tropical fruit and bready malts quickly and then fleeing the scene. Flavor profile is guava, papaya, mango, and tangerine in a more concentrated dosing of tropical fruits. Bready, wheaty, pale malts form the back end of the flavor profile, which accompany a little alcohol burn right at the finish. Mouth feel is medium in thickness with a still, smooth texture that develops a light chalkiness at the finish. Overall, while the aroma comes on a little weak, there are bigger, more notable qualities in the flavor profile.

Served in a 12oz snifter from a 16oz can.

Received as an extra in a trade and shared with JLindros.

A - Poured into a Kate the Great tulip a nice hazy murky golden hue with a thin white head that fades to leave light wisps and a thin blanket.

S - Aromas of nice citrus notes, pine, melon. Like a hodgepodge of hops. Light bitterness, maybe some melon as well.

T - Taste is similar to the nose with nicer bubblegum and almost tutti frooti like. Citrus as well, light melon. The malts are just okay, definitely flour in this.

M - Mouthfeel is lightly carbonated, kind of creamy but definitely augmented. Alcohol is hidden nicely though.

O - Overall this was a rather average hoppy beer. Just a hodgepodge of hops, flavors, and aromas.

Thanks to rudzud
Pours super milky murky yeasty floury tangerine color, decent foamy fizzy head that fades semi quickly, a little lacing

NOse brings all the expected hops, citrus out front, orange tangerine with pith, mild dank tropical notes into a little green onion garlic notes, tangerine orange stone fruit notes, little spicy as well, just a hodgepodge of hops, floury wheat malt thing

Taste creamy wheat and floury malt thing, some citrus and orange tangerine with a touch of tropical notes, rind and a bit of pith, spicy orange rind on the back of the throat, lots of rind and spicy notes too, so much pith and rind, little pine too

Mouth is med bod, a bit creamy decent fizzy foamy carb, no real alcohol

Overall eh, doesn't really go with the reputation of either brewery, not very good
