Dark gold pour. Thin foam. Very floral beer. Super weedy hops with floral finish. We know why it's a ten. It's the best of the best

Taster at Ardent. Hazy, pale yellow/ golden pour, skimpy head. Aroma is faint citrus peel. Taste adds some vanilla and sweetness, maybe lactose to smooth this out. Soft and approachable.

Draught @ Courthaus Social (9/14/19). Hazy pale yellow with very small frothy whitish head, mango-citrus aroma, low carbonation, bitter citrus peel-unripe mango taste, thin body, long bitter finish. On the bitter side.

Draft pour at Mellow Mushroom - Short Pump. Poured a slightly cloudy yellow color with a nice, small white head. Aroma was juicy hops, some floral notes. Pleasant citra. Really good.

Quite hazy golden and peach coloured body with a straw glow of gold and a smallish, two centimetre tall off-white head. Aroma of pure grass, citrus and a very grainy and grassy scent - very strong, in a great, fresh and clean way. Medium-bodied; Very fresh grassy and herbal taste at first with a good dose of citrus, pine, resin, flowers and a touch of grain and malt noticeable towards the end. Aftertaste is very dry and airy with the citrus, grass and very light hay flavours coming through, without much sweetness or punch throughout. Overall, a very dry and grassy flavour with the hops not coming through. A great beer to try, and showing much more of an IPA kick and traditional beer for the style than you would typically see or be able to grab nowadays. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can purchased from Whole Foods in Pentagon City (Arlington), Virginia on 22-December-2018 for US$3,49 sampled at my house, while watching the last SuperBowlLIII (pronounced super-bowliii) on 03-Februrary-2019.
