16oz can pours a clear gold, a little white head. Immediately, this smelled and tasted like jasmine. Nose opened to floral notes, honey, dandelion. Don't really get Amarillo, mostly a little bland Citra and some Mosaic. Flavor has simple grist and flowers and then a little mosaic. Lightly sweet, lightly watery finish.
