Mostly clear deep copper and slight bronze tinted body with a nice, two centimetre tall creamy tan head that's microfoamed and fades slowly. Aroma of grassy, herbal, slightly piney and ever so slightly tropically, with a small dose of sugars, but much more maltiness and hardly any alpha acid bitterness in the nose. Medium-bodied; Grassy and even slightly nutty malt flavours show first here, with a deep herbal and piney bite, that is much more noticeable after a few seconds on the palate, with some dry malts coming through and a kick of pine, flowers and yes, finally some hop bitterness is picked up - way late, though. Aftertaste is still pretty pervasive here, with a floral and perfumey hop kick that shows alpha acids and a dry, almost earthy and rustic maltiness that shows a lot of deeper characteristics and a touch of sugar at the end. Overall, a pretty disappointing beer with hops that I wasn't expecting, more malts than hops and a simplistic, one-dimensional profile that doesn't offer any surprises. Sad from one of the best beer stores here in the country, but still happy I brought it all the way back home and at least had it fresh! I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Siciliano's in Grand Rapids, Michigan on 03-August-2021 for US$4,39 sampled at my house here in Washington on 10-October-2021.

16 oz can. Pours amber with some light, fine particles and a white head. Citrus, herbal, pine aromas. Lots of hoppy herbal flavor, pine, citrus. Toasty malt, at times even a touch smoky (which matches the theme). Nicely done.
