16oz nitro widget can. Thin retaining white-gold. A-citrus, melon, slight caramel lt malt. T-citrus/melon that is overtaken by a grassy pithy hop bite that clashes, some lt malt.

Can - Lots of sweet orange and some earthy hops. Clear orange with a small white head. Lots of sweet orange, some pithy bitterness and a bit of a syrupy and dry bitter note. Not sure what they were thinking with this one. Nitro does it no favors either.

Can. Light toffee malt and orange peel aroma. Golden yellow with large cascading head. Sweet orange caramel malt and moderately strong grapefruit peel. Nice body with low carbonation. Pretty good.

Can from Bert’s Brilliantly clear deep golden color with a pillowy white head that persists forever. Deep bready caramel flavors with plenty of citrus and a bit of earth and pine. Touch of alcohol is a bit distracting, creamy smooth mouthfeel. Decent IPA on nitro even.

Poured from can thick creamy orange pour with a 3 finger white long lasting head. Aromas of dank citrus resin and hop. Taste is hoppy citrusy and long lasting bitterness.

Widgit can from Total Wine in Folsom, CA. Pours translucent gold with a huge creamy nitro whitish head. Aroma of many different non-citrus fruits. Med body or better. It’s hoppy, and fairly bitter. Mostly fruits like light stone. Very tasty. Not at all like the typical citrus/pine IPA. Good change of pace!

Pours a hazy gold, and imagine...a huge head of foam, creamy foam. ;^)

I get some citrus hops with a bit of caramel malt in the nose.

Light citrus, grain, mild sweet malt, overall the bitterness is also light. Made to order for a Nitro IPA.

Creamy body and quite drinkable but..I’d have second thoughts aboot buying it again. Not a fan of Nitros, for the most part.

Can: Clear gold with a quick, creamy white head. Sharp pine and herbal aroma. Taste has a lot of bittering....slightly oily, resiny, grassy. Almost a sour woodiness..... Rather harsh.....not exactly enjoyable.
