Can from Cap Tap. Pours translucent gold with a large white head. Aroma is earthy/garlic/onion. Not exactly but it brings those to mind. Med body. Flavor is earthy, melon, passionfruit, citrus and pale malt. Herbal dank. Quite dry. Very hoppy. Nicely bitter. Very tasty.

Poured from a 16 oz can dated May 03, 2022. Aroma is fairly hop forward with tropical citrus, passion fruit, melon, pineapple and dank, resin notes. Light cracker malt notes and hints of alcohol. Pours a somewhat hazy, pale, yellow-gold color with a medium large, thick, pillowy, white head that recedes steadily to a small film that lingers in clumps on the edges. Medium lacing and faint legs. Flavor is somewhat sweet with light cracker malt notes. Medium bitterness and light alcohol notes. Moderately strong hop notes with passion fruit, melon, strawberry, tropical citrus and lighter dank, resin notes and grapefruit. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a solid pale ale. The malt profile is very light but it works well with the lighter, brighter, fruitier hop profile. Not particularly bitter.
