12oz can. Chunky, thick, opaque grey-orange body. Big, steady, off-white head. El Dorado is one of those hops I drink a lot of, but still don't feel I really know. This goes so big on the wheat and oat that some of the flavor seems muted. I do get the sweet cherry, or at least I am lead to believe I do. Soft, juicy, not unlike Neo-mexicanus meets Mosaic. A little heavy with the wheat and oats, but enjoyable enough.

Disappointed with this one. Strange appearance with parts that are clear and other parts that are cloudy. Very unusual. Aromas are hops, caramel malt and solvents. Flavors are similar to nose, sweet up front with good carbonation to balance with low bitterness but that increases a little at the end. Don't really pick up much of the El Dorado hop variety.

12 ounce can from Niemuth's, 2/3/20. Murky orange, large foamy off-white head, good retention. Aroma of dank, tropical fruit, a bit of bubblegum, pale malt. Taste is mango, passionfruit, grapefruit, pale malt, a bit of pine. Medium bodied, juicy, low bitterness.
