16oz @ Ryan's shared with Farees and Phill.
Aroma: juicy, citrusy, creamy.
Taste: along the same lines, noticeably bitter, a lot of fruits, though. Some hop burn. Finishes with some rough tropical fruit bitterness.
Overall: a bit too bitter, but it's enjoyable.

Poured from 473mL can. Hazy yellow gold with small white head. Pithy citrus peel, pine, some hop burn, haven't been impressed with any of the recent versions of Head Banger. Not terrible, but uninteresting.

473mL can. Pours an opaque, dirty yellow with a white head. Loads of citrus peels and syrup on the nose. Flavour has intense bitter citrus peels, sharp pine, and loads of hopburn leaving an unpleasant, lingering bitterness. This is a disappointing entry for this series.
