From can to pint glass. Pours slightly hazy with a pure white head. Slight patterns. Aroma is caramel and citrus. Flavor is originally clean orange. A tad too much biscuit on the back half, but at the death there is a clean finish with the fruit again showing. Solid.

From can to pint glass. Pours a hazy, straw yellow with bright white head that stays around as a small cap can patterns cascade down the glass. Aroma is muted pine and straw with slight fruit. Flavor is a little more robust, especially for the alcohol level.

Can. Just unclear deep gold with a fading white head. Aroma of grapefruit, grass, pineapple (+ a little mango), pine. Light bread is underneath. Barely medium bodied, moderate carbonation. Bread and a touch of biscuit - not fancy but enough. And and bland sweetness it might impart is countered by a dry and fairly bitter finish. The citrus and tropical fruit notes swoop towards resin there too. Alarmingly drinkable, tasty, but not terribly interesting.

On tap at Clock Block Ueey, I can taste how true San Diego is. Hazy amber with tall orange-ish head. Hoppy and earthy aroma, something like grapefruit at the end. Taste is hoppy bitter. Strong hop presence all around. Hoppy bitter tale. Perfectly balanced, enjoyed a lot.
