Poured from a 16 oz can dated January 29, 2024. Apparently they have updated the recipe so this is a bit different from the older ratings. Aroma is hop forward and dank with lots of gooseberry, passion fruit, berries, tropical citrus and some dank, resin notes with a touch of cat piss. Light cracker malt notes and hints of alcohol. Pours a rather clear, brilliant, yellow-gold with a medium sized, thick, frothy, white head that recedes steadily to a small film that lingers on the edges. Medium lacing and faint legs. Flavor is slightly sweet with medium light cracker malt notes. Fairly strong bitterness and light alcohol notes. Moderately strong hop notes of gooseberry, berry, grapefruit pith and dank resin notes. Lighter notes of passion fruit and tropical citrus. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a solid pale ale. Really nice hop notes in both the aroma and flavor with tons of nelson character. Malt profile is light but big enough to carry the fairly strong hop bitterness and alcohol notes.

On tap at the brewery. It pours a hazy yellow color with a white head. The aroma is creamy, tropical fruity goodness. Mostly orange and passionfruit. Not terribly potent, but nice. The flavor is the same. Very fruity with some asian pear, passionfuit and orange. A little hop spice. Creamy mouth feel with very low bitterness.

On tap at Cellarmaker. Fresh and hoppy with pineapple, light malt and hints of grass. Medium bitter and with a rather dry finish.
