Can. Been awhile since my last Finback. 11 hops? Can't resist that! A solid haze on this orange gold beer, small but tidy pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, but emerging and good fine minerally carbonation on the back end. Smooth malts, a light creamy sweetness. Rich and rewarding hop profile here. But no single hop punches through, no Sorachi, no Sabro, nothing that has the capability of aggressively retaining its core character in a big hop morass. Sooo - 11 hops, abundant smooth orange with touches on tangerine and mandarin. Mellow smooth grapefruit. Trace of ripe lemon. On the back end, there is a modest NZ hop assertion. Mild lime and a little mango. Smooth pine runs throughout, a mild hop spice on the smooth finish. Nothing about about this beer, just that effortless elegance and drinkability of the best US brewers.

Can from Chris M: pours light bright orange with a white head. Aroma is tangy citrus, some tropical notes, but not a super intense aroma. Taste is somewhat bitter, fruity, dry sort of finish. A little herbal and aromatic bitters finish. Solid, but not totally my thing.

Sample pours an oily black with a little beige head.  Huge nose, big licorice and malt and molasses and rubber.  Flavor is huge, maple and vanilla arrive on a wave of roasted malt and black licorice.  Very sweet and oily finish.  Boozy too.  7 3 8 3 13
