Ultra hazy, very soft straw coloured body that barely registers as golden since it's so light, with a fairly large three to four centimetre tall just off-white head that's microfoamed, very nice looking and staying afloat for a long time. Aroma of very syrupy, sticky and very sweet notes that also shows some lighter hops along with some citrus and a good hit of alcohol here in the nose, too. Full-bodied; Super syrupy, resinous, dank and just plain sweet, with a deep and rich oaty and wheat malt body that is very easy-drinking somehow, but also showing some citrus fruits, a tiny bit of actual hop bitterness from alpha acids and ending with alcohol warmth of course, but closer to 8 per cent it seems. Aftertaste shows all of the above, but somehow in a richer, sweeter way, with a lot of alcohol here, it feels, but goes down still very easily. Overall, a very nice beer throughout, with an amazingly smooth malt bill with a bunch of citrus notes and a ton of syrupy, resinous sweetness that's on the border of being cloying, with a lot of alcohol, too. I wish the format was smaller of course, but get this and have it fresh! I sampled this sixteen ounce (WOW!), pint-sized can, purchased from Total Wine in Laurel, Maryland on 20-July-2022, which made it into the store on 02-June-2022 for US$7,49, canned on 28-April-2022 and sampled at my house here in Washington on 25-August-2022.
