Pint at Stout's Public House in San Diego. Pours a clear, straw color, with a big, foamy, white head. The nose is grapefruit peel, straw, coriander, rose, caramel, and heather. Sweet and nicely malty, with a mellow, citrusy bitterness. Medium body, crisp, and grainy. Bright, aromatic, and enjoyable.

Tall pint can (19.2 Fl Oz) from a 7 11 near my daughters place in Laguna Hills. Poured (twice) into an old Corsendonk stemmed tulip glass on 26th July 2025. Clean golden/amber body, white crust on top. Mango lead with a semi-sweet citrus feel throughout, easy drinking with a pleasant bite. Thought I'd rated this years ago, but I must have assumed I'd had it every time I come over to California and ignored it. Glad I finally drank one.

Probably canned, at the US vs. CZ west coast blind tasting. The only American beer I didn't guess was American! Clearish golden body, off-white head. Intensive NZ-style (HA! Now I see there's Nelson! Redeemed!) herbal notes in the aroma. Big, empty, dry taste, resin, gum, a bit of warmth and a bitter finish. Though it'd be one of the lighter CZ takes, but still this isn't not well crafted, the taste may have gotten lost along the way partly. Hopefully to be rerated fresh.

355ml can. Opalescent, yellow-ish golden colour with average to huge, frothy to creamy, slowly osteoporosing, moderately lacing, white head. Zesty, citrusy fruity and slightly tropical fruity as well as slightly resinous, hoppy aroma, pale malty background with a touch of cracker, hints of lemon, grapefruit, pineapple. Taste is bitter, zesty, (citrusy) fruity hoppy, pale malty basis with a touch of salty cracker, notes of lemon, some grapefruit, white grapes, gooseberry, a touch of woody pineapple. Oily texture, smooth, soft and silky, minimally greasy, simultaneously minimally pungent palate, very fine, soft carbonation. Well crafted, very clean, rather condensed hop flavours, excellent mouthfeel - good.
