What the brewers say
“A tropical hop aroma well-balanced by the smooth, malty addition of European rye malts.”
What our panel thought
“Gentle citrus-hop aromas edge their way out of the glass. Bright orange notes leap forward atop a nicely structured malt base. The citrus-forward hops perform a solo while some peach notes join the melody and intertwine into a tight, vivid finish.”
What our editors thought
“Perfumy and sprawling nose, with broad floral notes and light tropical fruit. Pineapple with a slender acidic line shapes the body; the high carb helps amplify the mild bitterness.”
