16 oz can from Goldfinger, packaged 4 days ago. Big catty hop smell as soon as I pull the tab. Pours a big white beery head over a pale lager body, slightly hazy with a continuous stream of bubbles. Smell is big on those hefty hop notes, dander,just a note of tropical fruit and then some pine resin. Taste goes big on hop bomb quality. Lots of bitterness and resin, just a slight side of tropical fruit, with a bit of malt. But the malt is light, so the slightly higher alcohol has to defend itself against the bitterness as well.
