Can (22339, so 12/5/22?) pour. It's a cloudy, light brown-dark yellow with tons of sparkle, 3-finger off-white foamy head with excellent retention and nice lacing. Aroma is strong tropical fruit, grape, melon, citrus and dank element. Taste is herb, grape, melon, piney bitterness over biscuit. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with smooth, fairly thin, frothy texture, average carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, decent complexity and the beer changes as it warms. A bit unique.

16 oz. Can in a trade with tfontana. Aroma is mild tropical like fruit and soft herb. The flavor upfront has a mango or orange like character. The finish is floral and spicy. I was absolutely stunned to find out this was Nelson Sauvin hops. Very herbal. Shows stern bitterness that grows when warm. Overall, this is NOT a juice bomb. That is what I like most about it.
