Canned 5/23/23, drunk 6/23/23. Clear canteloupe/melon/bronze. Large, beige head, well-retained. Spicy, lightly citric, lightly floral hops show about the best of what non-Citra American hops have to offer. It's not oniony, resinous, overly piney, yet shows a playful, light, bright pine and floral character with biscuit, light bread and pepper. Clear, clean, not boozey. Good maltiness lingering on the finish. Whew, that's spicy, resinous, but also plentiful chewy, caramel-tinged white bread. Clean, but with more bread and strong, chewy, malty textures on the finish with pine, black pepper and sourdough. For an OG WC, somewhat brutish ipa, this is pretty good. Sticky malt with good sweetness, but also good attenuation helps balance all this pine and citrus peel. But at the end of the day, it's still ALOT of resin, pine, spice, citrus....From what I understand, this one needs to be drunk like no later than 10 days old, so I'll try to rerate it again next year fresh on draught.

Creamy white good mostly lasting head. Yellow colour. Moderate malty and heavy hoppy aroma. Heavy bitter flavor. long heavy bitter finish. Creamy palate.
