Can. No hop list. Hazy amber beer, tidy pale cream colour head. Palate is airy, semi dry has decent fine carbonation. Light malts, semi dry and sweetish. Smooth piney hop, nice light hop spice. Spicy orange and mild orange peel. Trace of red berries into good ripe tropical fruits. Some hop skunk on the end. Spicy hop linger. Good stuff.
