From Brewvana 12 days of Christmas. No dating on the can.
It pours a hazy dark yellow/orange with a great head of foam with excellent retention. Good lacing as well.
Smells of pine, citrus, fruity, dank, overall okay.
The taste is hoppy but not really bitter. Pine, grapefruit citrus, cracker malt, but it leans towards the dank side which seems to mute the other flavours.
Good mouthfeel.
I would not seek this one out. It takes a great Hazy to impress me.

5 oz mini goblet draft at City Barrel Brewing Company in Kansas City, Missouri. The pour is a hazed orange, white yellow with a small white head that has nice lace. The aroma is soft tangerine peel and fruit. The taste is pleasantly bitter grapefruit and tangerine peel along with a touch of the fruit sweetness. The palate is an unfiltered medium body with a lingering sweet bitter. Tasty and super fresh.
