16 oz. can in a trade with tfontana, thanks Tom! Strange date coating that means nothing. Aroma is candied orange, apricot, bready malt. Flavor shows the orange, apricot, bready. Texture has a mild juicy character. Above average for me.

Update 4/8/20: Recipe has changed so instead of Simcoe, Amarillo, Mosaic, Rakau and Citra, it is now Citra, Strata and Rakau. Old version: Can pour into nonic pint glass from the Beeracks. Appearance is cloudy dark orange/light brown with light sparkle at the edge of the glass, finger-width off-white foamy head with fair retention and light leggy lacing at the top of the glass. Aroma is nondescript sweet/tart fruit, milder orange/citrus, candied fruit, cracker background. Taste is apricot, sweet fruit, citrus. Palate is medium bodied with smooth, thick, late frothy texture; soft carbonation and finish as taste with faint, dry lingering bitter. Overall, sweet fruity but lacking an identity. Fair enough but not a standout. 7,4,7,4,14 - 3.6 New (4/8/20) version: Can (date 20021) pour again from the Beeracks. Appearance is opaque dark orange-light brown with light sparkle at the edges of the glass, 2-finger rocky white foam head with good retention and nice leggy lacing. Aroma is citrus, mango, nondescript fruit. Taste is moderately strong, vague citrus, fruit (stone? melon? berry?) with grainy backbone. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with smooth, grainy texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste with dry, lingering bitterness with yeast and malt. Overall, the change in recipe only modestly changes this. Would be interesting to have the two versions side by side but still pleasantly fruity but pretty nondescript with nice appearance and mouthfeel. 7,4,7,5, 14 - 3.7. Average = 3.7
