Collaboration with Foam Brewers.
We started out with a heavy base of wheat and oats and a huge whirlpool of Amarillo and our hand selected Citra before conditioning it on over 600lbs of tangerine pulp. To finish off this supersized mimosa, we conditioned it on hand zested Florida Tangerines and huge dose of citra to drive a straight juice profile home.
Tangerine Peel Laboratory pours a vivid yellow and has an aromas of just pressed, tangerines and oranges. It’s flavor is big, bright, and vibrant mimicking carbonated dry hopped tangerine juice. It starts off zesty, pulpy, and deceptively smooth with a touch of sweetness that transforms into our smooth and balanced #EQjuice finish. Liquid fit for breakfast or any time thereafter.

Canned On: 2/10/24
Poured into a Trillium glass a very nice cloudy yellow/orange color, very nice carbonation, with a very nice thick/creamy one-finger plus off-white head, which also leaves a pretty nice medium size island and some pretty nice thick/creamy sticky lacing behind. The nose is hoppy, malty, with a very nice citrus complex (oranges, tangerines, pineapple, grapefruit, apricots, nectarines, peach, papaya, guava, mango), very nice diesel like. The taste is very nice, hoppy, malty, with a very nice citrus complex (oranges, tangerines, grapefruit, pineapple, apricots, nectarines, peach, guava, papaya, mango), a pretty nice little sweetness, very nice diesel like. Full Body, ABV hidden very well, with a nice dry/bitter finish. Overall, this is a very tasty beer. Very easy drinker at 10.5% abv.. Definitely worth checking out. MilkShake! Orange Julius! Addictive!

Appearance: Very hazy golden blonde IPA with a thick fluffy and bubbly head, about two fingers thick and great lacing
Aroma: grapefruit zest, lemon grass, lemon zest and citrus fruit
Taste: citrus zest upfront, lemon twang on the corners of the mouth and a semi sweet citrus zest flavor as you swallow. Hops and bitterness are spot on, alcohol is mildly hidden and not abrasive
Mouthfeel: full bodied IPA with plenty of carbonation
Overall: great tasting IPA and fun to drink

16oz can from Tavour. Cloudy golden pour, foam settles out to a fine beaded head with rings of lacing. Citrusy aroma, with.... what? ?? Something else I can't quite place. Taste is tangerine, but also another flavor, orange blossom? Mostly straight up tangerine though, citrusy, juicy. Zesty finish.

No date on can but purchased the day after it was received in store, so most likely quite fresh. Poured into a snifter in light of the 10.5% ABV.
Pours a bright yellowish orange, very thick foam. Quite hazy, no carbonation present, totally opaque. Smells like ORANGES and TANGERINES and CLEMENTINES and holy fuck it's ORANGES. From peel to pith to juice, this stuff is oranges. Flavor is impressive to say the least. It's huge and unashamedly boozy, with a lot of spice and some bitterness up front similar to a triple sec, before moving into a really delicious smooth orange juice. The juice is actually the best part, as the front end has far too much ethanol. There's some candied orange present up front and a little caramel malt as well, but the soft fresh juice and bittersweet finish are my favorite parts. As previously mentioned, the body on this thing is huge, and it's nicely smooth, but just too boozy for me.
I was hoping this would be a more natural-flavored version of the Abomination Rare Fog Mimosa sour TIPA, but this isn't as sweet or as interesting. It's just kind of like drinking orange liqueur.

Served in an imperial nonic pint glass
This beer pours orange and hazy. It pours like a snow globe. Floaties all over in this beer. It is topped with an inch of tan head that leaves nice lacing.
Citrus aroma with a focus on tangerine.
Good tangerine flavor. Plenty of citrus in this bitch
Medium bodied with a smooth mouthfeel
Nice beer. The floaties are ugly but don't distract from the taste of the beer.
