A: The beer is very hazy to cloudy yellow in color. It poured with a short white head that quickly died down, leaving a minuscule ring of bubbles around the edge of the glass.
S: Moderate aromas of orange citrus are present in the nose.
T: The taste follows the smell and is mostly dominated by flavors of orange citrus with hints of grapefruit and tangerine. No bitterness is perceptible.
M: It feels medium-bodied and a little juicy on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: From the smell to taste, this beer is all about the aromas and flavors of citrusy hops.
Serving type: can

Can from the brewery in Manhattan during the 2020 COVID pause. Pours a hazy golden orange with a bubbly white head that does not stick around, smell is musty dank and piney papaya and orange cotton candy, taste is pulpy orange juice in seltzer with a zesty sticky mildly bitter finish, feel is light and prickly. Carbonated whole blended orange in a glass. Yum.
