Pint can thanks to weihenweizen! 1/2/22. Assertive carb on opening and pours all head. Uh oh. Large foamy tan head, good retention. Eventually settles on some hazy orange liquid. Aroma of earth, muted citrus, bit of band-aid. Taste is earth, vegetal notes, citrus. Juicy, low bitterness. I think I can drink it but bad things are awry.
