Hazy and light gold with a white head that leaves bands of lacing behind. Decent mouthfeel and carbonation. Smell is grapefruit and pine with a malty sweetness. Tastes the same as the smell. Not too sweet with a lot of grapefruit and some tropical fruit. Finishes dry and bitter.

Can. White head. Hazy pale dull yellow.

Really citrusy. Has a lime like citrus. Earthy, green, and a bit juicy. Orange and watermelon. Medium bodied. Light bitterness. Easy drinking.

 

This beer pours a hazy yellow orange with a large head. The aroma is bright and candied, with notes of dried peach, pineapple, pastille candy, lavender, tangerine peel, candied violet, and pine resin. The flavor leads with a rich tropical feel of pineapple and mango, which is swiftly accompanied by a floral kick of lavender and candied violets, then a mist of tangerine peel, with a slightly resinous piney finish and a subtle but present bitterness. The mouthfeel is quite light and bright with spritzy carbonation. Overall I really like this - slightly outside the normal BlackStack profile of unctuous tropical and ripe fruits, but very tasty, with a pleasant green bitterness at the end.
