Number-coded can but unclear if it's a date. But this was released ~6/25/26 and drunk 7/21/26.
Very pungent upon pouring. Rich and intense hop with big acidity which I mistook for some alcohol at first. But I don't think there's any of that. Just a shit ton of hops. Sweet white grape is rounded somewhat, despite the slight undercurrent of pine. Lots of mineral and such from all the dry hop. Candied guava on the finish. Rich, deep, ultra pale malts providing honey-like intensity. For all the hop here, it also seems quite malty.
And indeed, it is quite malty. But of course there's hop coming at you from every which-way, as well. Guava, white grape, light pine bitterness and some dull alcohol on the very end. Needs just a bit more bitterness/pungency/dry hop intensity. The soft, rich, pillowy malts are comforting but just a shade too sweet. But this is certainly a flavor bomb and there are no significant issues. Promising stuff from a fairly young brewery.
