16 ounce can. Cloudy orange gold pour. Creamy, dense beige head leaves uniform lacing. Dank citrus hop aroma. Sweet bready malt backbone. Soft tropical citrus flavors abound. Passion fruit, tangerine and papaya come forward. A bit of sticky pine on the backend offers some balance. That wonderful lacing endures right through to the last sip. Nicely done.

16 oz can from Heavy Reel, via delivery, 3/10/22. Hazy orange color, white head, strong lace. Aroma is rather juicy, full on orange / citrus, with some tropical notes. Drinks rather sweet, could use a touch of balance, but it's good. Not getting the pine on the aroma or flavor, which I think it could use. Drinks super easy, dangerously so. A touch sticky, but goes down smooth and quick. A touch sweeter than I prefer, but solid stuff overall.
