Can, 0.473l. Aroma of tropical fruit, citrus, pine and biscuit. Pours cloudy dark golden color with large soapy off-white head and sparkling appearance. Taste starts medium sweet caramelly and biscuity with juicy tropical and stone fruitiness, following is resinous, herbal and floral, mouthfeel is rather dry, while finish is heavy bitter. Full body, oily texture and average carbonation in palate. Amarilla Biscuits…

Sample (thanks fonefan!). Yellowish golden colour with a small white foamy head. Aroma is floral, fruity, nectary and some slight spicy and wooden tones. Flavour is floral, fruity, nectary and some mild zesty tones. Very smooth and refreshingly fruity/nectary.

The aromas are slightly more resin than citrus hops and not super fresh. Flavors are somewhat similar and somewhat better than aromas with a little orange coming through and a nice mix of bitter to sweet. Good body, carbonation and bittersweet finish.

Two 16oz cans, one on 19th and one on 20th February 2022, both at my daughters in Laguna Hills. Clean and clear bright golden body, snow white foaming head. Citrussy and dank hops front, piney notes also. Nice!

On tap at Smog City Taproom - Torrance, pours a clear pale golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma is gently oily and dank, with resinous hop oils, dankness, and crisp biscuity malt. Flavour is quite oily, with lots of oily hop resins, some bitter pine, and a touch of dank. Crisp, bitter, oily palate. Well-made but nothing all that special.
