473ml can. Pours a hazy brown amber with a large, fluffy, long lasting, off-white head that leaves thick, soapy, curtains of lace. Aroma of bready wheat malt, grapefruit and piney hops. Sweet fruity flavour of bready wheat malt, grapefruit, orange peel and piney hops in a dry, bitter finish. Medium body with an oily texture and average carbonation. Not a NEIPA more like a WC IPA. A little oxidized, so not great, but not terrible either. I'd like to try it again, if it was a fresh can. No best before date on this one.
