16 ounce can. Hazy orange gold pour. Dense, frothy beige head. Superb lacing. Earthy, bittersweet citrus aroma. First sip brings a rush of dank citrus flavor. Grapefruit, blood orange, lemon and passion fruit. Sticky mouthfeel. Dank notes on backend. Long bitter finish and aftertaste.

Rich deep copper and bronze coloured body with a dense, thick, three to four centimetre tall rich tan head. Aroma of pungent alcohol, apricots, grass, pine and deep malt, all with a light citrus hop bitterness and more alcohol astringency in the nose. Medium to Full-bodied; Deep robust, rich flavours at first, with tons of malt coming through at first with a lot of alcohol soon afterwards, some pungent apricot and fruit-based notes with a deep bitter finish from the piney and more grassy hops. Aftertaste shows a proper balance of bunches of malt, with a deeper, more aggressive hop and alcohol presence that shows a lot of bitterness, but more astringent flavours and also a lot of sweetness from honey, caster sugar and apricots at the very end. Overall, a deep and pungent beer that shows some decent flavours that are a tad too aggressive and not polished enough. Nice to try, but probably not recommended due to such high competition in the style. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Knightly Spirits in Orlando (Orange Blossom Trail), Florida on 19-April-2019 for US$3,99 sampled at home in Washington on 26-September-2019.

Tall can. Mostly clear gold with a white head. Pine resin and citrus aroma. The flavor has tropical fruit with earthy, citrus hop bitterness firmly in front and back.
