Can from Chris M, which he delivered quite late so it is 2 months old: pours hazy with white head. Aroma is mild citrus, some light tropical notes. Soft citrus, limey. Some interesting fruity notes. Maybe it got better with age?

Can, courtesy of Chris M. Pours hazy orange. Orange, peach, synthetic orange, grapefruit, cheap orange soda, a slightly weird herbal note. Medium body. Not great.

16 oz can from Icarus mobile, 5/25/21. Citrus / grapefruit, a little pineapple. Getting a stronger off note on the finish that's reminiscent of diacetyl. Decent feel, decent drinker, and solid overall, but the finish is throwing me.
