Can. This October 20 version is hopped with Nelson Sauvin. Almost opaque pale orange with a puffy cm or so of white head. Aroma of gooseberries, grass, wintery oranges, some herbal notes. Smooth creamy texture with lowish carbonation. Some crackers but little distinct on the malt side of things. The fruitiness of the aroma is a little subdued but spices, vague citrus and a little resin grip along with moderate bitterness and a slight astringency towards the end. Pretty good. Modern vagueness of palate is a drawback for me.
