3 week old bottle to IPA glass. A: Billowy snow white 1/2" head, good retention and great lacing. Finely hazed pale gold color with just a few small bubbles. S: Sweet orange, grapefruit, pith and mild bread. T: Sharp, bitter grapefruit pith and tart citrus, joined by a hint of hay and toast. M: Light medium in body and finely carbonated, finishing clean with almost no resin. I could easily drink several. O: While not outstanding, I found this quite good and worth buying.

Can from Salud. Jet black oily color, of course, large dark brown head with good retention, see pic please. Vanilla dominates the aroma, with chocolate next, then coffee. Vanilla dominates the taste too, with dark roast coffee. Thin body. Tasty enough.

Light-bodied with flavors of salty tart citrus, yeast and biscuit malt. The finish is tart with a citrusy aftertaste. Decent overall.
