Can thanks to tfontana, drunk 4/13/24. Amber-bronze. Big, white head quickly to spotty cover. Smells herbal, clean, lightly hoppy. Bit of earth. Soft, juicy, spicy, floral, herbal. Good malt depth. Clean, heavily floral. Interesting.

Can pour from the brewery. Lightly hazy yellow with tons of sparkle, thin head with poor retention and trace lacing. Aroma is sweet florals and cherry with yeast. Taste follows aroma up front but back end adds a piney, lightly bitter component with grainy/pilsner-y malt. Smooth texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Part NEIPA, part West Coast IPA, part APA. OK.

16 oz can shared by tfontana. Thanks Tom! Aroma is wheat, ginger, and some spices I have never encountered before. It has a freshness about it do to the spices. I am not in love with it but I do appreciate the uniqueness.

Can pour from the brewery. Hazy bright yellow with no sparkle, ring of head and trace lacing. Aroma is wheat, citrus, mint, spices. Taste is wheat, lemon/citrus, hint of spice. Smooth, frothy texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Interesting Chinese five spice but I wish the contribution to the aroma had carried over more fully to the flavor.
