16oz can. Can bottom is stamped 'CANNED ON: 11/25/2020'.
Totally opaque, pale gold colored body. An easy pour produces a thick, small bubble one finger white head. Leaves interrupted mosaics of lacing.
Aroma is tangerine, pineapple, and lemon. Has some green melon.
Taste is fruity hops, and dry. Flavors of tangerine, lemon, and grapefruit. Melon balls too. Not too sweet and no bitterness, but still expresses the herbal hop dankness.
Soft mouth feel, a little thin. Any juiciness is quickly stripped away at the end of each sip. Good carbonation.
The dryness is a real feature here, and the remembering of the citrus juices leads one back to another sip.

Poured from pint can into shaker pint glass.
A: Pours a juicy/hazy lemon hue with 1-2 inch frothy white head with excellent retention, leaving generous lacing behind.
S: Lightly sweet grapefruit and tangerine with lemon, orange, and a hint of white grape.
T: Delicate tangerine, lemon, pineapple, sweet red grapefruit, orange cream, and a hint of pine and subtle earthy herbs.
M: Light-medium body. Lovely delicate citrus sweetness and a touch of creamy feel. Lingers nicely on the palate.
D: Excellent drinkability with a very interesting hop profile. Delicately sweet in a narrow range (Vic Secret offers similar notes to Galaxy) and yet offers good complexity within that range.

Aromas of grapefruit, pineapple and lime. Juicy fruit as well. Lots of fruity juicy aromas and flavors here. Feel is lightly carbonated. Overall, solid.

From the EQ Instagram post: “ A fractal is something simple at the core that can produce wonderful and amazingly complex results. This series helps us investigate how different hops manifest through our processes and allows us to optimize both our use of hops and our hopping techniques.
This beer is made with only pale malt and a Vic Secret and Galaxy hop bill. Fractal Vic Secret / Galaxy pours hazy-straw yellow releasing aromas of papaya and smarties candy with flavors of ruby red grapefruit, fresh lime, and kush. The taste is clean and dank with a light bitterness. This newest iteration in the experimental series makes the name “Fractal Vic Secret / Galaxy” warranted indeed.” Truly delicious!
