Gold but dull, grassy, fairly bitter, some sulphur. But the rich bitterness is good, leaving a strong final impression.

12 oz sample can from brewery rep. Aroma is tangerine, dank sticky green bud, piney, crackery. Pours lightly hazy golden with chunks of sediment (goddammit, Bale Breaker 🤦‍♂️) floating around underneath a thin bone-white head that reduces to a ring fairly quickly. Taste is moderately to highly bitter with citrusy, dank, piney flavors. Smells amazing, tastes pretty good, looks like shit.
