Bottle share at Level 42. Thanks to Frank for this one. Pours hazy gold with a really large white head. Aroma is tropical fruits, citrus, pine and a little dankness. Taste is mango, citrus, pine with a dank finish and a little boozy burn. A little too carbonated. Good stuff

A nice slightly hazy golden and light copper coloured body with a small three centimetre tall tan head. Aroma of pine, grapefruit, grass and light malt. Light to Medium-bodied; Strong malty flavour with toffee, caramelised sugar, grains and earth all noticeable and only a touch of bitterness, some sweetness from honey and caramel and a little earth on the taail end. Aftertaste is rich from the malt, showing some alcohol bitterness and a touch of grain, but no real hop flavours at all. I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from The Liquor Collection in Honolulu, O’ahu, Hawaii on 30-December-2015 for US$2,25 sampled on the train from Washington to New York on 01-December-2016.

12 oz can. Nose starts out vaguely perfumy before a clean hop aroma comes through. Pours hazy golden with a medium white head with decent retention and a little lace. Taste is candy sweet with flavors of fruit cocktail; finishes a little dry with nearly no bitterness. Really tasty.

Can in to a glass Hazy light pale orange amber Moderate lasting firm white head Pale malt aromas, lightly toasted and slightly woody and sweet. Similarly flavors. A little honey wheat toast flavors, low hop and fairly sweet. I would lean this a bit toward a light "amber"
