Can (2/14/20) pour from Greg & Jane's Beer and Wine. Appearance is opaque light brown-orange with decent sparkle at the edges of the glass, finger-width foamy white head with good retention and no lacing. Aroma is strong citrus, tangerine and candied sugar. Taste is strong citrus (bordering on astringent and metallic), spicy, with less defined tangerine/fruit and melon rind. Mouthfeel is medium side of light-to-medium bodied with smooth texture, soft carbonation with late lively zing, slight numbing of the lips, late esophageal warmth, and crisp, dry finish as taste. Overall, some very nice qualities but also some flaws. Good.

16 oz. can. Canned 2/14/20. Flavor and aroma directly reflect each other. Flavor shows a mild tropical fruit on top of a slight spicy rice malt back bone. Bitterness is here but also displays a juicy texture. Exceptional balance. Real good.
This follows the OH up pretty well. Not as juicy, but really good. Come and get it.
