Tasted in a Spiegelau IPA glass from a howler on January 31, 2018. Look is hazy turbid orange gold with a thin white head and lingering lacing. Smell is juicy hops, tropical fruit, citrus, earth, sap and pale malt. Taste is doughy malt, juicy tropical fruit, citrus and ripe fruit. Feel is medium in body with fuzzy carbonation and a dry finish.

32oz growler, filled on 12.30.17, poured into a Half Acre "cult" snifter glass.

The beer pours a hazy and turbid orange color, golden hues with soft ambers and a finger of white head, good retention with tons of soapy lace clinging to the glass. The aroma is great, tons of juicy hops, lots of bright tropical fruits, bursting with pineapple and mango, lots of citrus as well, tangy grapefruit peel brings out a bit of earthiness and sappiness with pale dough and mineral water. The flavors are very good, soft doughy malt, mineral water, juicy tropical hops, bright, floral, citrusy, super ripe fresh fruit with a lightly sweet finish. The mouthfeel is good, coating, thick medium body, crisp carbonation with a dry finish.

Verdict: An awesome pale ale from Half Acre. Crazy juicy, tons of hops, excellent for the hazy style and at only 4.9%, it's crazy how much body and flavor this beer has. I wish this was canned and in the regular rotation.
