Pours a nicely hazy golden straw color with a sudsy off white head that laces the glass nicely nicely. Melon, oranges, bit of passion fruit, and a floral note as well.
The melon and candied orange flavors are forward, with the bit of passion fruit and that floral note at the back of the palate. This is a flavorful, really easy drinking APA that I am digging immensely. Excellent stuff.

16oz can (coded 04-21-044. OK then.) Poured into 14oz teku. Poured a VERY cloudy, borderline turbid, yellow-orange color just under an inch of white head that had moderate retention and light lacing.
The aroma was hop forward, slightly frooty with some mustiness, and also had a slight grain base.
Very similar on the tongue, with the addition of a slight touch of bitterness.
The body was medium, smooth, and had a medium finish.
Drinkability was good, an easy quaff.
Overall, a nicely solid brew. Not a real standout, but solidly enjoyable. Worth a shot if you see it.

The name comes from the hops— Comet and Loral. This seems like a good mix, with the fruit and citrus and touch of pine. Pours a clear amber with abundant foam in the Stell Artois goblet. Crisp but also malty body with plenty of suds on the tongue. Some inviting malty sweetness with a tang.
Aromatic with lemon, melon, and fresh alfalfa. Overall this is an excellent and highly drinkable brew. A hop showcase that is also light and elegant. Date on the bottom says 04-21-044, if you can decipher, but it's a recent 2021 brew anyway. Purchased at the Community Coop in Bellingham.
