Pint can (canned on 05/23/2017 and consumed on 06/13/2017), courtesy of JPDurden24, pours with a near clear straw gold body that supports a thin white head. The aroma offers up tropical tangy cantaloupe, star fruit, mango skin and guava with an earthy flowery note hanging around in the background. The taste delivers sweet yet tangy tropical juiciness that’s guava, cantaloupe, mango and then running into bitter flowery floral hop notes. Toward midway an earthy tea hoppiness emerges as well as some more floral notes and then a mild booze kick into the finish. Pretty fun beer with a rather unique take on the hop aroma and hop flavor profiles. I haven’t had an array of hop flavors quite like this before. I like it. The hops create plenty of depth and richness with a unique play between tangy tropical notes, sweet soft tropical fruitiness and then bitter floral and slightly under ripe pineapple.
