Tasting at Ryan's, can
Cloudy pale blond colour, compact head. Strong aroma, this is real dank, onions. Soft mouthfeel, it lacks of carbonation; not much to say about the malt base; the hopping is bold, dank, onions, sulfur, and low bitterness.
It's rather unbalanced.

Poured from 473mL can (canned 24 May 2023). Lightly hazed blonde gold with small white head. Onion hops forward. Overall fine, just a disappointing hop expression.

16oz (thx, Brian C.!) @ Ryan's. Appearance: a bit hazy blonde with a white head. Aroma: jeez, I don't know why something dry-hopped with Nectaron would smell like onions, did they forget to put Nectaron and out Citra from the previous batch instead? Taste: along the same lines. Overall: meh.
