440ml can. Opalescent, orange, golden colour with average to huge, thick, dense, firm, frothy to creamy, moderately lasting, minimally lacing white head. Piney, resinous, slightly citrusy fruity and grassy, hoppy aroma, slightly spicy, pale malty background, hints of pineapple, some grapefruit and orange, hints of salty cracker and lemon pip, whiffs of rubber. Taste is moderately bitter, citrusy fruity and piney hoppy, pale and slightly caramel malty basis with low residual sweetness and a spicy touch of pretzel sticks, hints of orange peel, grapefruit, diluted hints of pineapple.
Oily-watery texture, smooth and soft, minimally greasy, simultaneously slightly dry palate, medium to fine, dense, mildly prickly carbonation.
Well crafted, not overly aromatic - flawless, but just mediocre in the end.
