From a can in an ice cold frozen glass. Pop the lid and wahllah, it smells like the faint nose of a popular pine cleaning fluid. Color is hazy near orange pale. Perhaps a tint of light brown in there? First taste is not as bitter as expected, but yes it is bastardly bitter. A few more glugs, and I think I'm starting to get some cough syrup in there too. This effect is accompanied by the feeling of warmth down the throat. Difficult in the middle, especially for my girlie lager lovin taste buds. Whew, quite an impression. Gets a little boozy towards the end and I think some of that numbing sensation is kikken in. On the finish this all smoothly accumulates into a big mouth-coating labile mess of pine tar, fermented green grapefruit rinds and a little turpentine. There, you have it.
