Can pour into nonic pint glass. Appearance is opaque, dark, dark yellow (bordering on light brown) with no sparkle, 1.5-finger width foamy white head with poor retention and no lacing. Aroma is citrus, fruit, mild herb/cannabis over bread dough backbone. Taste is strong herb over milder sweet fruit. Mouthfeel is medium side of light-to-medium bodied with thick texture, slight alcohol warmth, average carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, elements are all there but taste lacks complexity to be truly interesting. Decent, but not stellar.

Can at home. Hazy yellow color, full sized white head. Aroma is lightly malts, hay, grassy and citrussy. Hmm expected something different. Flavor is malts, hops, nice moderate resinous hoppy notes, decently bitter. Medium body and carbonation. Also a light hopburn towards the end. Overall pretty solid though. 8-2-8-4-16

Can Hazy yellow gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, mildly dry, decent fine minerally carbonation. Light malts, a little thin, a reasonable creamy sweetness. Pretty skunky hops, quite tangy and bitter. There is citrus and tropical fruits but they are very much secondary aspects to the bitterish skunk. A bit skunky then.

Pretty heavy on the hops, nice bitterness. Not just juice and fruit, but a proper DIPA here. Loads of grapefruit. Pretty good, offering something else than just sweet smoothie.

473ml can. Murky, yellow-ish, pale golden colour with average, frothy, slowly osteoporosing, minimally lacing, snow-white head. Chalky and oaty aroma, cautious hoppy overtones with unspecific fruitiness and a piney touch, just indications of tropical fruitiness, mango, passion fruit. Taste is quite identical: slightly dry oaty and hoppy, cautiously fruity, minimally papery and chalky, mango, passion fruit and pineapple at good will. Absolutely disappointing.

473ml can. Hazy, yellow-ish, bright golden colour with average to huge, thick, creamy, moderately lasting and lacing, white head. Rather cautious, citrusy and piney, hoppy aroma, notes of lemon, lemon drops, a touch of pineapple, herbal-grassy overtones with a touch of lemon balm, lemongrass. Taste is dry, citrusy hoppy, notes of lemon, lemon zest, lemon drops, hints of lemongrass, a minimally grassy and papery touch, unobtrusive pale malty basis. OK - not more.
