This triple IPA was generously dry hopped and conditioned on Michigan wildflower honey, giving notes of ripe citrus nectar.

Very hazy & orange. Looks like Tang. Aroma opens up the more it warms up. Citrus IPA flavoring intertwined with honey. Carbonation is on the low side making a smooth velvety mouthfeel.

No canning date (released on 3/4/22, so presumably canned within a few days of that date); consumed on 3/30/22

Pours an overly hazy copper-orange body topped with a finger of craggy, bubbly, off-white foam; decent head retention leaves a slim layer of cap, a moderate, frothy collar, and myriad walling of webby lacing tightly encircling the glass.

Aroma brings wildflower honey smoothing over boozy resins, building to lush tropical inflections of peach and mango peel, while residual tones of red grapefruit, papaya, and waxy white grape underscore the bouquet over time.

Taste opens to melon and papaya saturated with musty honey edges as waxy peach lingers over the mid-palate against soft, grassy resins and orange zest through the finish.

Mouthfeel shows a medium body with medium-low carbonation, dispersing a silky prickle coursing through an otherwise fluffy mid-palate; some dryness lingers, though shreds of juicy character find soft resins gliding through the back end and peaking on a plush, deftly warming finish.

Honey intertwines with a resinous consistency throughout this TIPA, with floral subtleties nodding to a surprisingly easygoing sipper despite a somewhat restrained hop profile; balanced, though lacking the overall expression to elevate the beer as a whole.
