12 oz can purchased at the Hy Vee Wine & Spirits in West Des Moines, Iowa (Mills Civic Pkwy). 05/28/2021 printed on the bottom rim of the can. The pour is a mostly clear golden orange with a foamy, well formed one inch off white head. The aroma is pine, citrus peel bitterness, and soft caramel cereal malt. The taste is the pine hop up front, the bitter resin citrus peel, and finishes dry and a little chalky with the cereal malt. The palate is medium to light bodied, natural carbonation and the dry soft bitter pine finish.

(Thanks, Jim! Ozyy70) A- Sour, lemon, salt water. A- Golden yellow color, hazy liquid, white head. T- Tart, lemon candies, salty, mildly acidic. P- Light body, average texture, average carbonation, tangy finish. O- Not a bad thirst quencher. A bit on the acidic side but pretty refreshing. Plenty of lemon and tartness. A surprising amount of salt though.

16 oz. Aroma is cantaloupe, lightly bready, light passionfruit, latex. Pours hazy golden with a one finger off white head with decent retention. Taste is lightly bittersweet, finishing dry, with juicy hop flavors and a welcoming note of coconut that I didn’t pull out of the aroma.
