Hazy, fairly pale. Medium head. I like the aroma…i know what citra cryo smells like but there’s something new here…must the 158, right? Thin malts as usual, harsh. Medium bitterness, hops seem more muddled on the palate.

Murky pale blond colour. Nice aroma, in succession there is some dank hop, citrus peel, tropical fruit. The mouthfeel is dry, and maybe they should go back to sweeter versions, because this really highlights the chalky feeling; it's muddy, oaty, creamy, and ultimately astringent; the hopping is good, but it's more resinous and bitter citrusy than juicy, so, once again, just adding up; notes of bitter melon, and very light mint in the finish. . Overall, good but dirty.
