Can from Total Wine in Vacaville, CA. Pours gold with a moderate creamy white head. Aroma of citrus with a bit of pale stone fruit. Med body. Rather juicy, but fairly dry. Moderately bitter. Lots of citrus, but other things cause a bit of confusion. Has earthy prickles like passion fruit. Something suggesting sucking a peach pit. Complicated flavors, but quite nice.

Can from The Davis Beer Shoppe. Pours light clear pink with no head. Aroma is raspberry and lemon. Near med body. So dry it's astringent. Raspberry and lemon fight it out. A little apple skin is discernible.

355ml can. Minimally milky, yellow-ish, golden colour with average to huge, frothy, osteoporosing, minimally lacing, white head. Relatively weak, citrusy fruity and grassy hoppy, slightly spicy, pale malty and minimally dusty yeasty aroma, hints of lemon, grass, a touch of hay. Taste is moderately bitter, citrusy fruity and slightly tropical fruity as well as slightly grassy hoppy, slightly spicy, pale malty basis, hints of lemon, a touch of mango, subtle residual sweetness. Watery texture, slightly dry palate, medium to fine, dense, mildly prickly carbonation. Can't deny its West Coast origin, additionally quite cautious - slightly disappointing.

Can from Total Wine in Folsom, CA. Pours perry color with a white head that left immediately. Aroma of pink guava and passionfruit. Med body. Flavor starts pink quava, quickly gets apple, then orange and then perhaps passionfruit. Quite dry. Bitter isn't in it. Nice flavor.
