Can at home. Fucking gusher!! Unclear orange color, huge foamy off-white head. Aroma and flavor is malts, quite grainy, but there is also a very pleasant quite firm bitterness and "resinous-sprucey" hoppiness in there that I very much like. So even though this was a fucking gusher, in the end the beer tasted absolutely fine. I'd definitely like to have a second can (which I would open over the sink...).

440ml can. Minimally cloudy, amber colour with average to huge, frothy, moderately lasting and lacing, sulphureous, off-white head. Piney, citrusy and slightly tropical fruity, hoppy aroma, caramel malty background, notes of grapefruit, lemon, tangerine, some mango, a touch of guava, minimally chalky overtones. Taste is initially crisp, bitter hoppy, slightly citrusy, hints of grapefruit and lemon, from the second third on quite mineral and chalky, slightly leafy with a touch of lime, but largely flavourless. Watery texture, very dry palate. Bummer!
