Very hazy and murky with light head retention, smells of orange, peach, and guava. The taste is crisp and dense with flavors of orange julius, peach, mango, guava, grapefruit, papaya, nectarine, and a hint of coconut on a super smooth and creamy, extra thick body. The finish is long and moderately high in bitterness, featuring notes of dry prosecco, grapefruit, apricot, cantaloupe, peach, and floral hops. Overall, it’s everything I expected from a “King Jjjuliusss but with even more hops” and then some. It so densely packed with hop flavor yet extraordinarily smooth and drinkable; no notes of vegetal bitterness or astringency at all. I can’t even imagine the inevitable Triple J Emperor.
