Super clear, lightish golden coloured body with a relatively thick four to five centimetre tall tan head that's microfoamed and stays afloat for a long time. Aroma of crisp, citrusey and quite dry herbal notes with a lot of bitterness perceived here with a tiny bit of candy-like sweetness here as well. Light-bodied; Strong grassy, hay and very floral notes up front with a big kick of alpha acids and a very polished, smooth maltiness with a mellow kick of kiwi fruit and oranges, with a slight bite of acidity from limes with a dry, grassy finish. Aftertaste shows a lot of robust characteristics that especially bring out the grass, hay, flowers and subdued breadiness from the yeast that almost makes this seem as a lager versus an ale, but enough complexity finally emerges from the hops and alpha acids with soft malts to show better. Overall, a nice enough, super crisp, dry and fairly bitter, but not showing much complexity - probably by design. Nice to try, especially from the brewery and quite fresh, but probably not worth searching for if you can find others. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Precarious Beer Project in Williamsburg, Virginia on 28-November-2021 for US$4,99 and sampled at my house here in Washington on 04-February-2022.
