Draft at Social Project. Poured a clear, golden orange color with a small, white head of foam. It left sudsy lacing. It smelled of orange, grapefruit, pineapple and caramel. Sweet tropical fruit taste with toasted caramel and a sharp, piney bite.

Pours a bright & effervescent gold with 2+ fingers of pearl colored head. Stays effervescent, average-ish head retention & better lacing

S: Pungent hops when you first crack the can, dank ness & a little peach. Nose fades once warmer, but some breadyness surfaces

T: Some peach notes, cattyness, melon rind, some dryness, a little berry up front. Grapefruit, weedyness, berry, peach & pine as this beer warms up. Finishes with pine, catty notes, peach, melon rind & dryness

MF: Medium body, smooth carbonation, great balance

A bit different, but still plenty of bitterness to drive drinkability
