Can from De Baron Van Wolvega. Dank and hoppy aroma with fruity notes, 'green' hop, some citrus, grapefruit and grassy/herbal notes. Flavour is moderate bitter with some dryness in the finish. Medium body. Good, lots of dank-ish fresh hop in the aroma.

16 oz can picked up at Tapped, Mill Creek. Dank forward hop nose with a touch of soapy and floral character as well. Melon and some juicy front, more dark hop character that never really gets too bitter. A little unsure of the hop bill used in 2024 here, but it feels fresh and unique. Punchy melon full palate. Tasty brew.

16oz can pours out hazy golden topped with a white head. Nose is a nice hop combo some pine citrus a little tropical touch. Taste is more of the nice hop combo and a balanced malt bill.

Can from Beer Zombies Vegas. Plastic cup back at the fort. Sticky, cobweb, lingering whitewash lace. Orange over yellow hazy brew. Yeasty, pepper, sweet pineapple & white grapefruit nose. Sugary hit, then dry. Heavy on bitter white grapefruit pith, with lingering pine oils & onion. Soft orange, but not enough. Rough.

16oz can; drank at my daughters place in Laguna Hills on 27th January 2022. Hazy golden body, white crown. Certainly has plenty of hops within it's make-up, citrussy, floral and herbal notes in both the nose and taste, grapefruit esters and flavours at the front for me.
