From the pint can, it pours a mostly clear golden sunshine color with a nice long lasting white head that slowly reduces and leaves lacing. The nose gets lots of tropical scents, mostly citrus. The mouth follows with a citrusy bite followed by a pleasant fruity brew that is easy to drink. little to no aftertaste.

Somewhat of a disappointment. It was fruity and juicy, perhaps too much. Not really well balanced.

L - yikes, pours an ultra hazy swamp murk. Brownish greenish yellow. Nice head.
S - overripe papaya, banana, and sourdough. Coriander and a metric fuckton of oats.
T - more oats. Oats mixed with oranges. Mild acidity and just a lot of sticky ripe stone fruit. Grains and brown bananas. Low pH with lingering bitterness.
F - thick and viscous with a chewy vibe. Like drinking a milkshake.
O - this beer is all over the place but I like it. Bold in its milkshake qualities yet still packs a bitter punch. Somewhat of a yeasty mess, but dig-able all the same.

On tap at the brewery. Brewer says it's a NE IPA with all galaxy hops.
Look is as expected, cloudy orange with a short white head that fades.
Lots of good hoppy smell and taste, tropical orange juice, a bit dank and resinous. Plenty of character from the one hop type.
Good feel, juicy smooth and soft with a slightly pithy bitter finish.
Overall excellent, I'll have to get more!
