Very pale orange and very colloidal, but also somewhat thin in that aspect. Like incredibly opaque, but not at a great concentration. A little bit of fuzzy white head, but not much.

Nose is sweet and floral/citrus. Kind of creamy, and a touch of like honeydew as well.

Flavour follows this path in general... incredibly creamy, with elements of like light melon, some sweet citrus, and a touch of like floral sweetness as well. Maybe some starfruit as well.

Very creamy and soft. Pleasant, with a sweet uptick at the end.

I'm not huge on the pillow/haze IPAs, so I don't think I'm really the target audience for this (well, other than the branding. Randy Johnson was a beast), but for those that like the style, I think this would appeal to them. It' very well put together.

16oz can served in a glass that might be inspired by Schott Zwiesel. No date that I see.

Pours a hazy whitish-yellow with a very small head and not much carbonation. Smell is tropical fruit and slightly boozy. Very mild.

Taste is tropical fruit juice and slightly boozy.

Mouthfeel is fairly thick and fairly creamy. It's good, but not particularly special.

Jandy Rohnson from No Boat Brewing. Received 16 oz can in a LIF from @snaotheus. Stored at home at 40 degrees. Reviewed 27/09/21. Note that I use DD/MM/YY protocol.
Undated can. Served at 40 degrees in a hand washed and dried Jester King snifter. Final temperature 45.5 degrees.
Appearance – 4.5.
First pour – Straw (SRM 3), slight haze.
Body – Straw (SRM 3), opaque. When rear-lite, same but weakly translucent.
Head – Small (Maximum 2 cm, aggressive center pour), ghost white, high density, average retention, diminishing to a five to ten mm undulating crown and a rocky partial cap. Second pour produces no high density head, just a thin ring of tiny bubbles.
Lacing – Excellent! Multiple bands of tiny to small bubbles, connected by medium to wide columns, slowly melding into a wide band of finely torn lace curtain.
Aroma – 4.25 – Initially citrus and fruity, no malt, no yeast.
Flavor – 4.5 – Begins with a slightly sweet taste of fruit, a bit citrusy, and a bit grapey; no malt, no yeast, and a slightly acidic aftertaste on the rear of my tongue. No ethanol (8.4% ABV, as marked on container) taste or aroma. Slight gastric warming. No dimethylsulfide or diacetyl.
Palate – 4 – Medium, approaching creamy, soft but lively carbonation.
Final impression and summation 4 (After deducting 0.25 point for undated can) Delicious DIPA, excellent use of Nelson Sauvin hops to blend with the already fruity Mosaic. This is one I could drink until I fell over. Looks good, smells good, tastes better!
