Can. Just unclear amber with a cm of white head. Aroma of breadcrust, white grapes, pine, some tropical fruit. Light bodied. Tastes as it smells. Not very much sweetness despite a lick of caramel. Kiwi hops give way to moderate resinous bitterness. Lacks a little presence but tasty enough.

From a plastic growler @ Tokyo Midtown tasting, thanks Chewy. Darker orange pour, some white foam. Nose has some brett character in the front, light bitterness. Funky and farmhouse like. Taste has fruits, some light bitterness, fruity citrus thing. Drinks well, good bitterness but at the same time easily quaffable. Finish has some lemony dry linger that continues with some bitterness. Tasty.
