Poured from a 16 oz can dated May 13, 2020. Aroma is hop forward with loads of juicy citrus notes. Lots of mandarin, tangerin, orange and tropical citrus notes. Light cracker malt notes and hints of oats. Faint alcohol notes. Hints of tropical fruit. Pours a murky, hazy, dull straw color with a medium large, thick, pillowy white head that recedes quickly to a small film that lingers on the edges. Light lacing and small legs. Flavor is somewhat sweet with a bit of cracker malt and faint oat notes. Medium bitterness and light alcohol spice. Fairly strong citrus hop notes with light tropical fruit notes. Lots of mandarin, tangerine, orange and tropical citrus. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a nice citra forward beer. Citra hops work well with this hazy base beer and really accentuate the tropical fruit notes.
