Canned. Yellow orange pour. Juicy hops verging unto tropixality. Very enjoyable.

Can pour into nonic pint glass from Bert's Better Beers. Appearance is crystal clear golden yellow with light sparkle, finger-width white foamy head with fair retention and mild, soapy lacing. Aroma is moderate citrus, stone fruit and melon with bready malt background and hint of burnt matchstick. Taste is a reflection of the aroma though citrus is higher in the mix and not quite as complex. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with thin, smooth, frothy texture, average carbonation and dry, crisp finish as taste. Overall, not bad for a one-hop offering with fair complexity and decent balance.

Pours clear golden with a thick white head. Aroma of thick and resinous hops. Taste has unique hop elements, a really weird resin element. Palate has oaken resin elements, slight herbal notes. Interesting.

The Aromas are mainly resin hops, with a little bit of citrus caramel malt and wet grain. Flavors are somewhat like nose, mildly bittersweet with a little medicinal in the Finish. Okay body and carbonation. It seems like Firestone Walker is losing their Edge.

12 oz can from a variety pack from the supermarket. Aroma is a pineapple and citrus explosion. Pours lightly hazy sunshine golden with a one finger bone-white head with decent retention. Taste is lightly bitter, very dry, with a shit-ton of citrusy tropical hop flavor. Prickly carbonation. Amazing beer that puts any of their Luponic beers or their other IPAs and pale ales to shame. I hope this isn't just a one-off.
