Can (10/2/21) pour from Beer and Wine Nation. It's an opaque light brown-dark yellow with no sparkle, finger-width white foam head with poor retention and veils of soapy lacing. Aroma is strong mix of citrus and stone fruit with mild corn chip. Taste is strong orange, citrus, mango, late grain. Mouthfeel is medium side of light-to-medium bodied with smooth texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, somewhat nondescript and not super bright and juicy given all Citra, but OK.

Can from Jeff, thanks Hazy lemon yellow with a thin bubbly white head that quickly recedes. Earthy grassy lemon orange and tropical fruitiness. Light sweet bread and faint alcohol. Decent.
