Crowler pour into an IPA nonic. Hazy pulpy orange juice-like pour with a medium creamy off-white head. Surprisingly tropical, very floral and fruity. Peach, pineapple, orange and mango. Lightly dank. More berry character on the palate with that smooth mellow peach/pineapple/orange juice flavor. Lots of juicy, tropical fruit notes in a mild, yeasty bitterness; enjoyable sticky sweet and coconut flavors. Medium body.

Out of a can, orange hazy pour. Not much of a head. Instant citrus aromas, heavy orange and mango, quite floral, probably the best part of this beer. The taste is expected- juicy orange, mango, pineapple, a bit of a hoppy bitterness on the end. It’s very thin, almost watery, maybe a bad can? It reminds me of the homemade popsicles I would have as a kid, where you pour orange juice into a mold and freeze it. If you let one melt in your mouth you would get this slightly sweet, watery orange taste. That’s what this beer is. It’s refreshing for sure, but I’m on the fence about it. Maybe it’d be better on a hot summer evening.

Pint at Westside Taphouse in West Salem OR.
$6
Looks like the typical Hazy. Orange juice with pulp . Small Lacey white head.
Aroma is juicy orange and lemons. It different from the usual Hazy.
I liked the taste compared to the other reviewers. It's simple bitter and citrus. Maybe this is because I am not usually a fan of this style.
Mouth feel is nice and medium smooth. Semi dry finish.
I liked it.

On tap at the brewpub. The beer is a murky yellow brown, poured with no head. The smell is very hoppy.

The taste ... well, I should say I've had several Barley Brown beers, and loved them all. Until now. I had high expectations, but this one disappointed me. There's a grassy hop character, and of course plenty of bitterness. There's an odd metallic off taste. And overall, this beer was kind of Johnny One Note, without any of the complexity of Barley Brown's better offerings.

Overall, very disappointing.

Short pour at PreFunk. Hazy pour, small head. Extremely dry. Not your typical hazy IPA, very dry, chalky. Was expecting something a bit more exciting, but found it unexciting after the Revision.
