Reviewed from notes.
Can to tulip.
Appearance: glossy yellow to orange color with a finger and a quarter of white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: black pepper; orangey to lemony hop notes with a bready backbone and a slight clove-like note in the back end
Flavor: meshes the prior noted aromas to a fine sweet to semi-spicy vibe; finishes the same way
Texture: light to medium bodied, very sessionable; fairly smooth along the tongue with the previously noted spices behaving exceptionally light and barely noticeable here
Overall: wish I had a second can because I bet this would be a stellar beer with some swordfish or possibly lobster tail.

Fresh can. Aroma is yeast, black pepper, clove. Flavor has mild lemons, orange, bready malt center. Some earthy notes in the back end. Pretty easy to drink table bier. As it should be.

Can from The Packie Lightly hazy dark yellow with a thin white head that slowly dissipates. Earthy lightly tart with hints of lemon pepper and clove. Pretty tasty beer.

Canned 12/4, drunk 12/29/18.
Clear, soft golden with honey tones and a white head showing moderate retention.
Nose is soft and fruity with pleasant saison-like yeast adding light plastery mineral, yellow fruit and minimal pepper. No clove. Malts seem well-attenuated, adding biscuit and very light honey and there's just a touch of acidity on the very end. No alcohol or flaw.
In the mouth it's malty, dry, supple and well-lagered with no aggressive yeast notes and no clove, flaw or alcohol. Biscuit-honey with nectarine and very light lemon keep it bright and crisp while lingering mineral notes and very light pepper build complexity. Tight, low-to-medium carbonation. A touch of herbal hop character, but primarily driven by the yeast with malt character being second most prominent.
