Can (5/12/25) from the taproom. Cloudy light brown-dark yellow with trace sparkle, nice head with poor retention and light lacing. Aroma is orange and mild herb. Taste is strong orange, earthy malt. Smooth texture, medium body, soft carbonation and crisp, fairly dry finish. Decent for an APA. The DDH version really takes it to another level.

Can at home. Hazy light orange color, average sized white head. Aroma and flavor are decently malty, lovely hoppy, fresh and crisp I'd say, with some of the best fruit hoppy flavors you could ask for and a light bitterness in the finish. Definitely worth it. Very solid.

Can. Pours a hazy orange gold with a white head that dissipates to the edges and laces. Aroma has notes of leaves, earthy citrus rind and a bit of dank mango underlying. Flavor is similar with a lot of earthy citrus, some leaves and a bit of dank mango in the finish.

(473ml can from Beergium) ~9wo @ drinking. Pours nearly opaque dark gold with an average white head and lots of lace. Aroma of grapefruit, floral tropical fruit, grass, some dank weed and sweat, touch of sweet malt and some biscuit/cracker. Flavour of grapefruit, lime and navel orange, lots of flowers, grass, slightly sweet pale malt with a lot of cracker and biscuit notes that build from the middle on. Finish is dry, lightly to moderately bitter, with herbal grassy hops, slightly sweaty dankness and cracker. Light to medium bodied, a little watery, average carbonation. A bit too grainy for me, it's distracting through the later part of the sip.
