Can, thought it said 7/30/25, but it's best before 7/30/25. I think it must have been canned on 4/30/25. This also sat warm on the shelf. Drunk 11/5/25 at a likely 6+ months of age! As pictured.
Very slight caramel with tasteful grapefruit and pine. Round and fruity with soft malts and just a bit of biscuit. No alcohol or resin.
Grapefruit, pine, slight caramel but no toast or resin. Malts are soft, supple, deep, pretty nicely attenuated. Like a NEIPA with WC tendencies, or maybe just mostly the hops being PNW-like. Some spice, lots of grapefruit, wood and mild pine. Nice balance and no big caramel or overbearing malt. Low-to-moderate, tasteful bitterness.
Wow, a great Austin Street beer...don't see that very often these days!

Pours murky orange into a tulip. White head quickly recedes to hug rim. Orange and mango aromas. Soft with sweet tangerine, passion fruit and mango upfront turning to dusty tropical fruit skin in the bitter, lasting finish.
