Our latest exploration blends an abundance of our favorite fruit-leaning hops, providing robust and juicy notes of tropical fruit, white grape and white peach with just enough dryness on the finish to round it out.

16oz tallboy can received courtesy of Whyteboar. No freshness date.
Poured into the glass, this was an entirely opaque and was an orangey amber color. Decent sized, sudsy white head. Lots of lace.
While being poured into the glass, it smelled like a big ol pulpy glass of orange juice. After spending a little time in the glass, a little bit of tropical fruit juice-like aromas emerged as well.
Orange, mango, papaya are all present in the flavor. Slightly sweet, very mellow vanilla like flavor as well. Not particularly pithy but rather smooth, with just a little bit of a dry, citric acid bitterness on the finish.
Fairly creamy mouth feel to this.
Basically, this is a well-balanced fruit bomb, which sounds like a contradiction in terms, but it fits. Very juicy, but also very easy drinking, which is kind of devastating for something this strong. Really enjoying it after dinner on a day where the temperature reached 100°, but I'd not dream of having a second one tonight if I had one. Thanks, Craig!
