This is a murky, hazy, juicy looking beer. Thick 2 finger white head that has great head retention. There's some beautiful sticky lacing on the glass.
The aroma is tropical as expected from the style. Mango and pineapple aromas seem to stand out to me.
Taste - There's pineapple flavor with a hint of mango. There's a very faint dank hint that also shows up. Slight bitterness to this beer on the back. The flavors aren't over the top strong, but do show up. As I am drinking this, the dank is getting stronger.
The body is somewhat sticky and somewhat juicy.
Interesting beer overall.
