355ml can. Pours deep amber, reddish, partially transparent, with a foamy head, fine and light cream. Aroma is intensely hoppy, malty and toffee, resinous. Body is partially dense, with average carbonation. Taste is bitter, pungent, but at the same time with quite some sweetness behind. Final is pretty long, intense, very hoppy.

attina 355 ml, schiuma beige compatta fine persistente, colore ambrato torbido, al naso frutta tropicale caramello agrumi mandarino resina ananas, in bocca malto pompelmo ananas uva, corpo rotondo, alcool troppo in evidenza e non molto bilanciato per i miei gusti, carbonazione piatta, oily, dolce bilanciato con amaro accentuato. Buona ma un po' troppo pesante per i miei gusti. c. Cantina della birra. 02.06.23

19.2oz can bought from Luekens Liquor, Seminole. Brownish gold and clear with a thin white head. Light spicy aroma with pine, caramel, a touch of tamarind. Bittersweet in the mouth with fruited fudge, kumquat peel. The bitterness takes over in the long finish, slight metallic sourness in the aroma. Not perfect but pretty damn drinkable and hides the ABV well.

Poured from 355mL can. Hazed orange gold with small white head. Sweet caramel malt, mild pine hops, a touch out of balance in terms of sweetness, but okay.

12 oz. can, pours a hazy dark copper golden with a small white head. Aroma is very sticky, with tons of resinous hops, sticky caramel malt, some candied notes, and a touch of pine. Flavour is sweet and resinous in the hop department, with piney, resins, and sweet caramel. A bit too sweet, but the resinous hop character is nice. Shits all over most hazies at least.
