What Our Editors Thought

“Buoyant aroma grounds kiwi and papaya highlights with peach and guava midtones. Very light body and low bitterness step aside while the fruit and subtle pith drive the sophisticated and understated flavor.”

What Our Panel Thought

“Raspberry and melon in the nose with floral and orange. Light-bodied mouthfeel finishes dry. Bitter up front, but quickly moves into a sweeter, mint-like hop flavor, along with grapefruit and bitter orange. A sneaky sweet malt character helps balance the hops.”

What the Brewers Say

“Featuring Mosaic, Krush, Simcoe, and Nelson.”
