One too many of these and you won’t be able to find your shoes in the morning. Super hazy and highly hopped with notes of grapefruit.

Poured from a 32oz Crowler filled yesterday to a Nonic.
Hazy apricot juice appearance with a decent head that fades rather quickly with no lacing.
Aroma is really strong and pleasant- apricot, peach with mild citrus.
Taste is more balanced than the aroma suggests. Sweet start, dry finish.
This could use a little more carbonation, but the mouth feel is fairly creamy.
Overall, pretty good, would not refuse it .

On tap at the brewery. Pours a hazy vibrant golden yellow with a thin layer of head. Lots of lacing. Sweet citrus and tropical fruit aroma. Peach, tangerine, pineapple, guava and some candy. The taste is tangerine and orange peel, pineapple, grapefruit and peach. Lightly toasted malts and tangerine. Medium body with an oily mouthfeel and lightly carbonated.
