Very hazy and murky with light head retention, smells of white grape, pine, and grapefruit. The taste is crisp and creamy with flavors of orange juice, peach, lime, mango, and orange creamsicle on a super soft and smooth full body. The finish is long and moderately bitter, featuring notes of grapefruit zest, orange peels, pine, apricot, white grape, and herbal hops. Overall, this is a much more complex beer than I was expecting; it has the tropical fruit and the juiciness and the soft mouth feel that you’d expect from EQ, but also a very Trillium-esque restrained spicy, floral, resinous hop character layered perfectly on top of all that and I really like the end result.
