Pale yellow, good head of foam and lacing.

Smells of cloves, coriander, citrus-bitter hops.

Tastes of light cloves and Coriander but the IPA thingy is stronger. Citrus, hints of orange peel. Finishes on the spicy side.

Nice mouthfeel and overall, a goodish brew.

Amber orange with a white head. A real good looking beer. Citrus and pine notes with nice malt sweetness holding it together. A good amount of hop flavor and bitterness.finish is lightly drying before being pounded out by the sweet malt. Lingering bitterness. Good brew.

16oz can from a 4 pack.

A nice light gold colour with a 1 finger head of fluffy foam. Plenty of lacing.

The smell has some hop bitterness to it, grass me thinks, and a very light nose of grain. It’s a weak nose overall, I think the draught version had more character.

The taste is lightly to moderately light grainy with some lemon zest in the mix. A strange brew from the can; all the flavour seems to be up front and it fades like crazy mid palate on until just after the swallow where it picks up again with some slight sweet notes and a bit of hop bitterness. I like it but the impression I get is that this is on the lower end when it comes to calories, not that that is bad but it has a "Light Beer" feel to it.

Light bodied with very light carbonation. The mouthfeel could be improved with a tad more carbo.

Drinkability? It’s a Wyoming brew that, I think, has some potential to be better than it is. That’s my 2 cents worth. Other than that, it is an easy beer to quaff and is somewhat refreshing. I prefer the draught but this isn’t half bad.

Pretty neutral with the flavours. Rather long lasting aftertaste, which isn't pleasant.

Can split at Bruce’s pad, big thanks to my main man Endo for setting this up and gifting me the state rate, 28/11/14. Hazed amber orange with a big old light beige covering. Nose is pine, bitter citric peel, spice, earthy hops, bread dough. Taste comprises light skunky hops, perfume, lemon rind, bitter orange, earthy notes, light grapefruit. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with an earthy hop ring. Ok DIPA.

Bitterish hops - yellow grapefruit and grapefruit peel. Bitter floral - pine. Light orange citrus. Whisper of tropical fruits. Smooth finish with good bitter linger. A grower.

Can shared in London - big thanks to Colin. Pours clear, deep gold with a creamy white head. The nose has some ripe orange, grainy pale malts, hints of pine. Light-medium sweet flavor with further grains, some gummy melon, toasty pale malts, grain husk, light grass. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Finishes with more of the same,: toasted grains, grass, rindy orange. Perhaps not super fresh but it’s OK.

Can thanks to C-Dogg. It pours lightly amber with a decent yellow-white head. The nose is sweet, juicy, piney, caramelised sugar, cake and orange peel. The taste is bitter, toasty, brown bread, toffee, brown sugar, earth, wood, light varnish and orange sherbet with a dry, lightly sweet finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Best Wyoming action I have tasted. Ok.
