19.2oz can. Pours clear gold with white head. Aroma is fairly light; sweet malts and light resinous pine. Flavour is full-bodied with base of caramel malts, well-balanced with pine and citrus. Excellent.

Lots of pine, a little booze. Good backbone here, and nice and bitter end. It's probably not as fresh as it could be. Thought I'd like this more than i did. Can.
