Can from Total Wine in Folsom, CA at 8.8%. Citra, Sourthern Cross, Nelson and Pacific Jade hops. Pours translucent orange gold with a decent white head. Aroma is floral, citrus and cooked caramel. Med body or better. It is hoppy, but not painfully bitter. Melon, grapes, unusual citrus and a lot of perfume/floral. Malt is rather cooked caramel. Hard to explain that, but it is different from plain old caramel. It's heavy duty flavor, but a bit on the malty side.

Sampled from the tap at Ermanos. Pours a clear gold with a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has a light onion with bitter pine, dank grass and a bit of sweet grains. Flavor has a great dank and bitter pine with growing grass and a bit of funky onion in the finish.
