Can. A light haze on this gold beer, good bubbly pale cream colour head. Airy smooth palate, develops good fine minerally carbonation. Smooth light pale malts, a nice light creamy sweetness. Hops, not detailed by Cloudwater, brings soft pine and a pleasant orange-tangerine-mandarin - must be Citra surely? That and maybe Simcoe. For a brew called Double Dank, it's really not the hop skunk bomb I thought it might be. A clear but softish skunk runs throughout but never dominates the fruity character of the hops. Soft finish. Went down easy. Not breaking any new ground here but, a well rounded and pretty quaffable brew.
