Pours a hazy, orange-pineapple, with smallish head. Aroma is tropical fruit and citrus. Flavors follow, with an aftertaste of almost...rubber? Soft, smooth mouthfeel. Moderate hop bitterness in the finish.

On tap at Barrel Theory, pours a cloudy yellow with a small white head. Aroma has plenty of allium, some chalky nonsense, maybe a touch of tangy hops, but the allium from the Citra is dominating. Flavour is full of allium -- ugh, too much oniony hops, some tangy citrus, and almost a hint of sourness coming from that hop expression. I get zero Nelson, just a lot of allium. Not too chalky or sludgy, but that Citra can get fucked.
