Smell- weak, hops, fruits, citrus, caramel, malt. Foam- thin, acidic, hops, some malt and some fruits. Head is medium to small, white color, maybe a bit to the yellow. Sticks. Appearance - can, unique but no bonus this time. Clear, orange amber, no carbonation. Later goes full hazy, sediment-ish. From - snifter Taste - fruits, hops, acidic tones, citrus, caramel and more hops and bitterness. Fruity IPA with a bunch of hops, would like it less hoppy for my taste. Still decent.
